A Reader Review
A must-have for anyone that has undergone back surgery.,
September 23, 1998
Reviewer: A reader from
Portland, Oregon
Forget what your doctor and your physical therapist have
told you about healing your back after surgery (which
probably isn't much). Moshe Feldenkrais was the Einstein
of back recovery. Ruthy Alon's instructions will take you
beyond your most positive visualisations of how to get
your back to support your life from now on.

Amazon.com Review
A year or so ago, a Feldenkrais instructor conducted a
seminar for a handful of fitness journalists. The
movements we tried were based on the way infants twist to
roll themselves over and get around. Within a couple of
hours, my flexibility and posture had improved
dramatically. Feldenkrais, as Awareness Heals shows,
isn't about sets and reps. It's about relaxing muscles,
rather than building them, and getting your body to use
minimal effort to move. Learning these movements from a
book isn't ideal, especially since this book is a bit
skimpy on illustrations, but it's a good introduction to
the method, and will probably suffice if you can't get to
a class and learn the valuable back-saving lessons from
an instructor.

Magical healing, April 14, 2000
Reviewer: Michelle Senjem from
USA
Feldenkrais was the only thing that brought me back to
living pain free after a very bad back injury. I had
tried every single thing without lasting results! But
this works!

Book Description
Thousands have found renewed health and increased sensory
awareness through the Feldenkrais method as explained in Awareness
Through Movement. Here is a way for people of every
age to integrate physical and mental development into a
new, invigorating wholeness. Feldenkrais provides a
modern-day, practical program for the perennial ideal of
a healthy mind in a healthy body. His down-to-earth
method carefully avoids any mystical component and never
obliges any pupil to master abstruse theories. Exercises
for posture, eyes, imagination, and more will
simultaneously build better body habits and focus new
dimensions of awareness, self-image, and human potential.

A Reader Review
Learning - reformed!, April 5, 2001
Reviewer: Gábor Renner (see
more about me at Amazon.com) from Austin, TX USA
The great educator, Professor Moshe Feldenkrais,
describes his work in "An Adventure in the Jungle of
the Brain" (Abenteuer im Dschungel des Gehirns) as
this book is titled in German. And it is an adventure. A
sixty year old business women wakes up one morning and
cannot understand what has happend to her world. She
discovers that she can neither read, get out of bed
properly, cannot differenciate between her left and right
slippers, bangs into the wall instead of passing through
the bathroom door nor can she speak when she wants to
express her irritation. Feldenkrais describes in detail
all the steps he takes to discover how he can facilitate
her brain to reajust and regenerate her capabilities to
cope with the world again. He discribes his
investigations, the mistakes and successes. This book is
really a description on how we learn to learn and how we
need to embrase our mistakes for only due to them we
develope the facilities to learn.

A Reader Review
A Great Intro to the Magic of Moshe Feldenkrais,
June 9, 1999
Reviewer: A reader from
Chicago, IL
Based on the transcripts of a five-day seminar Moshe did
in California in 1979, this book, which combines
wonderful images with a direct transcript of his
lectures, offers the best way to clearly get a sense of
this wonderful man and his physical/verbal wizardry.
