Play with yourself!!

What Keleman and other sensitive therapists of the soma demonstrate and educate is principally and at base just this: awareness in the kinesthetic sense.

How is your ancient and Wise body talking to you, and what does it Say?

The cacophonous drumbeat of the computers, TVs, cars and petty obligations drowns out those 4 million year old signals from below.

All of of us in this profession are engaged in one way or another, in bringing people back to awareness of the body, and awareness that has been number out of us by parents who don't want us to play with ourselves or who "know what's good for us"; by schools who cram us into one size fits all desks and offer only repetitive and competitive phys ed programs;

And, finally, by the corporate world, which would prefer you did not pause to feel but instead work, work, work--either blue collar or white -- so you Can spend, spend spend until you drop into the healrh care mess.
