What is Health?

Expand Your Ability: Embodiment, Somatics, and Feldenkrais

We deal here with health and not with disease. This is what Moshe Feldenkrais told the students of his training program back in 1980.

In this episode you will hear:

- health is your ability to recover from shocks
- how shocks and traumas relate
- health is the ability to pursue the dream that's within you
- reflection questions
