I came in from some heavy weed pulling and my neck and shoulder blades were really painful. I thought I could find some help from Feldenkrais, and once again you have come to my rescue! Thank you ☺️
Thanks-- Here's a couple playlists that have videos that can help: Hips Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLwFUj6A2pEcHWcEKYTeuHgb.html Rest/Healing Positions: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLzX2kFsniWsIMXUuVhYnMeE.html
This was really great, thank you. It seems to reinforce the video you did several years ago with the 'ear pull' sitting in a chair. That video gave me one of those instant improvement experiences you mentioned. I have never been the same since, haha, in a good way! I can't believe other yoga and dance teachers ever speak of letting the pelvis support the head. I can finally find my balance!
Thank you, Annie. I had a lot of pressure on the base of my neck (due to a car accident 11 years ago), and after the movements I feel a bit more relaxed.
I was very stiff (neck and shoulders) when I started this lesson and it's already better! Thank you. Is it advisable to do a few different neck / shoulder exercises in a row or better to wait in-between exercises for a better result?
That's great-- generally, it's best to wait a bit, an hour or a few hours-- let your body adjust and integrate the lesson and you can either try the lesson again or another in my playlist: Head & Neck Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLy8Z6azdx0hkhKsAco0C5x5.html Daily lessons are helpful especially if you are having issues -- they help "tune up" your alignment and movements.
thank you helping my shoulders too good recommendation come back , that might help not overwhelm the CNS, too. i rush tiffs through standing, but, my ribcage needs the most attention think.
Still looking, i tried ,many, you can be very humorous , which can also help me. These moves as you know can be helpful for many things, my chest, ribs, shoulders renain tensed some, even though things are helped. Do you have a thought which video might be goid to center on, you have so many helpful tips.
My neck felt great after doing this twice through x thank you x I still have so much tightness in my posterior inferior serratus - I am not sure how to release this muscle group
Serratus is one of those areas caught in the middle of holding up the balance for the rib cage and shoulder girdle. Nice to work with the skeletal support through pelvis and Core. Try another lesson that works with the ribcage or pelvis either from my shoulder playlist or hips or core. I've listed a few playlists for you...

@@SensingVitality Thanks so much Annie x I LOVE your amazing teaching and work - they are all so wonderfully balancing x I teach lots of Pilates classes and also have SIJ disfunction so if anything my core is over worked and my Quadratus/Serratus /Posterior Chain is overtight hence very uncomfortable times. I will definitely check out the videos you have posted for me thank you so much for responding!
I have other lessons in my back playlist: Back: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLw5dBIZCS9Z1KwVA5Ao3HMI.html Check out the two lessons on sliding the heel on the couch lessons. Those are gentle and also check out the healing rest lessons for back and hips: Rest/Healing Positions Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLzX2kFsniWsIMXUuVhYnMeE.html
Fibromyalgia is a tricky situation. Leave this lesson -- do a lesson that is on the floor/ground instead of sitting. Seated lessons require a bit more effort than lying down and can be a bit gentler for your body. Breathing and eye lessons are helpful for fibromyalgia to help calm the nervous system. Check my playlists--
maybe twice a day-- awareness practices are meant to be fresh-- so if you'd like to do more lessons, try another lesson from one of my playlists or something that attracts your attention in my videos: Head & Neck Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLy8Z6azdx0hkhKsAco0C5x5.html Back Warmup: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLxNdJS5P7Ze-fNN8QJ24MVq.html Shoulders: th-cam.com/play/PLrnMEMVXiYLzKI0UBwTN-CVEwg_EnAOLZ.html

Glad you found this helpful. Some yoga and dance teachers do understand this skeletal support-- this connection is catching on... slowly. :)
Thank you, Annie. I had a lot of pressure on the base of my neck (due to a car accident 11 years ago), and after the movements I feel a bit more relaxed.
Awesome... give yourself a little time to shift this pattern with gentle movements
That was great. Slept on plane with head dropped down too long, kink almost gone. Always amazing. Thank you.
Glad to hear! you are welcome...
Made it twice, feeling so good thank you

Does this work for fibromyalgia cause I still hurt as much after 2 rounds

The Feldenkrais method isn't exercise. You shoe know better. Smdh.
Feldenkrais isn't exercise. Shame on you Annie Thoe. You should know better. Smh.
