Lavinia Plonka – Experience The Feldenkrais Method

ENJOY LESS PAIN, MORE CONFIDENCE, AND CLEAR INTENTIONS BY CHANGING YOUR PHYSICAL POSTURE — AND REWIRING YOUR BRAIN, MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM & NERVOUS SYSTEM.
RELEASE TRAPPED TRAUMA & ANXIETY THAT CONTRIBUTE TO YOUR PHYSICAL PAIN AND EMOTIONAL SUFFERING THROUGH THE FELDENKRAIS METHOD.
What if you could transform low self-esteem AND heighten your wellbeing — mind, body, and spirit — simply by changing how you stand up from a chair?
Can you imagine the possibility of expanding your sense of choice and freedom… and significantly altering the direction of your life… by being conscious of EVERY move your body makes?
The truth is, the way you physically move tells a story — to other people and to your own nervous system…
The way you carry yourself triggers hormonal responses that become part of the chemistry of your self-image.
For instance, slouching and hunching your shoulders signals to others that you’re tired or sad — but did you know it also causes your nervous system to produce the very hormones that then lead to you feeling depressed?
It can be surprising to learn that It’s NOT actually your muscles or joints that are causing your pain or discomfort — it’s the mixed messages your brain is giving and receiving as it tries to navigate old wounds, new fears, and constant chemical reactions as you move through the world…
What if, by simply changing the way you carry yourself, you could break free of everything from chronic pain to self-sabotaging habits to unhealthy emotional patterns, and more?
In an exciting new training, celebrated body language expert Lavinia Plonka will introduce you to the Feldenkrais Method…
These revolutionary practices harness the power of safe, subtle, sophisticated movements to teach you how to literally reorganize yourself — resulting in improved range of motion, reduced pain, and a fuller life.
As you’ll discover, your thoughts, feelings, perceptions, and movements are closely interrelated — and influence each other in powerful ways.
Lavinia will guide you to move with minimum effort and maximum efficiency — not through muscular effort, but through increased consciousness of how movement actually works.
You’ll become more aware of the link between your inner and outer worlds… and how your physical movements mirror your feelings about your sense of self-worth and your place in the world.
GAIN A WHOLE NEW UNDERSTANDING OF YOUR BRAIN & NERVOUS SYSTEM
We’re stepping into a new era of understanding the brain and nervous system — and it starts with awareness of the habitual postures and holding patterns in the body and the way you carry yourself…
Stories continue to emerge about patients who, for example, have undergone surgeries and assumed they were perfectly healthy afterward. Yet they were (unknowingly) carrying the trauma of the actual surgery within their nervous systems, causing unexplained physical and emotional symptoms.
Although they had been under anesthesia during the surgery, their systems remembered the trauma…
When they realized they were holding onto the fear or pain stemming from the trauma of the surgery and worked through it using the Feldenkrais Method, they were able to release the trauma — and the pain they had been carrying disappeared.
Through subtle movements, you can transform YOUR story, coming into heightened self-awareness, an expansion of your repertoire of movement, and improved functioning — bringing your life into alignment not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually, too.
When your whole body moves cooperatively, and when maximum efficiency is achieved — with minimum effort — you’ll unleash your powers of creativity, intuition, healthy sexuality, and more…
Welcome to the relationship you’ve been waiting for — your relationship with yourself.

IN THIS BREAKTHROUGH TRAINING WITH LAVINIA PLONKA, YOU’LL:

Discover subtle, yet powerful somatic practices to help you heal emotional patterns, trauma, and chronic pain

Explore how sedentary habits compress the spine — and how injuries can lead to back pain
Perform your first complete body scan, diving into experiential anatomy — your sense of your inner self

And much more…

MODULE 1: TRANSFORM TRAUMA & CHRONIC PAIN — FINDING FREEDOM TO MAKE NEW CHOICES & FULLY ENGAGE IN LIFE (JANUARY 16)

In this opening week, Lavinia will welcome you to the relationship you’ve been waiting for: your relationship with yourself.
She’ll share why and how trauma, stress, and illness so often create chronic pain that defies medical support.
Lavinia will walk you through how the Feldenkrais Method uses movement to dialog with your nervous system through the language of movement and sensation.
You’ll start by looking at all the ways your body “keeps score” of all the different insults you’ve suffered — and the baggage that literally constricts your muscles… creating patterns of pain on a cellular level.
Often, your breathing and sleep can become compromised, contributing to more inflammation and discomfort. Your breath feeds your cells. Your sleep literally helps flush toxins out…
In this first lesson on moving out of pain, you’ll:

Learn how trapped trauma and anxiety holding patterns contribute to hypermobility, poor sleep, compromised breathing, and chronic pain
Discover how to enlist the parasympathetic nervous system to promote healing and relaxation
Begin to apply the Feldenkrais motto: Less Pain, More Gain — moving effortlessly and with self-compassion
Master simple strategies for better sleep and stress reduction to facilitate relaxation and healing
Practice a visualization exercise using “inner eyes” to soften away pain
Experience a movement meditation for creating inner spaciousness, releasing tension, and literally giving your cells room to breathe

MODULE 2: FREE YOURSELF FROM BACK PAIN & MOVE FREELY IN THE WORLD (JANUARY 23)

Back pain has become a multi-billion dollar industry. The statistics of the number of people suffering from back pain are staggering.
How did this happen?
In this week’s class, Lavinia will explain how the perfect storm of too much sitting — at desks, in cars, on couches, and more — combined with the constant stress of contemporary life — has literally imprisoned our backs. In fact, sitting is now considered the new smoking.
Stress, fear, and anxiety also march up and down our spines.
There’s a reason for the popular saying, “I’ve got your back.” It evokes the feeling of knowing you’re taken care of…
And when you don’t feel as though anyone has your back, it can become a vicious cycle: your back hurts from work, you protect your back, your nervous system interprets it as a lack of safety — and makes your back pain even worse.
In this module, you’ll:

Uncover the true meaning of the metaphors and emotions connected to back pain
Explore how sedentary habits compress the spine — and how injuries can lead to back pain
Master your first complete body scan, diving into experiential anatomy — your sense of your inner self
Explore how the gentle, careful movements of the Feldenkrais Method improve movement without unnecessary effort
Receive actionable tips for relieving back pain — which you can implement when you’re sitting or lying down!
Pinpoint the places in your back that are contributing to your pain
Free your back with a powerful, yet safe, Awareness Through Movement® lesson

MODULE 3: DISCOVER YOUR POWER CENTER — FINDING DYNAMIC STABILITY IN YOUR PELVIS (JANUARY 30)

Despite the fact that the word sacrum (the lowest part of your spine that connects your pelvic bones) comes from the Latin word for sacred, the pelvis has gotten a bad rap for the last 200 years.
Many of us were (at least implicitly) raised with inhibition and shame around this part of our bodies — resulting in physical and emotional inner conflict.
This week, you’ll discover how the all-important pelvis is literally your geographic center. .. your legs and spine are actually moving along with it!
From reclaiming your sexuality to feeling confident that you have control over your bladder, reconnecting with your pelvic power will ground and empower you.
In this module, you’ll:

Connect to your diaphragm and your pelvic floor, and, by extension, your breath and your power
Discover how your pelvic power center helps you maintain inner and outer balance
Explore the surprising connection between your pelvis and TMJ pain in your jaw
Improve your stability and balance by understanding the six planes of pelvic movement
Learn how to maintain the mobility of your pelvic floor as you age
Discover the holy and holistic elements of your pelvis — and how your organs, the first two chakras, and the root of the spinal energy (also known collectively as Kundalini energy) affect the whole of you
Explore movement and visualization practices that are powerful alternatives to Kegel exercises

MODULE 4: STANDING YOUR GROUND — MOVING FROM HABITUAL TO HEALTHY POSTURES (FEBRUARY 6)

Your posture tells a story… to other people, and to your own nervous system. This week, you’ll discover how to effortlessly improve your stance to support and even embolden you.
Your posture triggers hormonal responses that become the chemistry of your self-image. For example, slumping, looking down, or even turning down the corners of your mouth signal to others that you’re tired or sad… and causes your nervous system to produce the corresponding hormones that lead to feeling fatigued and depressed.
Many of us have struggled since childhood to “straighten up!” as our parents admonished, but not being unable to sustain it. In this session, Lavinia will share why it’s not your fault.
In this module, you’ll discover:

The difference between superficial “power posing” and actually embodying courage
How your vagus nerve (a cranial nerve that supports the heart, lungs, upper digestive tract, and other organs of the chest and abdomen) affects your emotions — and your posture
How your seventh cranial nerve controls the muscles of facial expression
The relationship between tension and relaxation in your face — and how it connects to your posture and emotions
Why caving in your chest, pitching your head forward, and rolling your shoulders up, limits your ability to respond to life’s challenges
Why maintaining a posture that defies the human design impacts your ability to breathe, the functioning of your heart, your sense of balance, and even your vision
How to check in with your attitude anytime with a posture body scan
An Awareness Through Movement lesson that equips you to actually improve your posture by rounding your back

MODULE 5: OPEN YOUR HEART — HEALING ANXIETY, GIVING & RECEIVING LOVE (FEBRUARY 13)

Put your right hand on your heart, and say, “I promise you…” Now put your hand on your belly and say the same words. Different, right?
This week, you’ll discover how your heart center is the place for your heartfelt feelings, which are often completely different from your reactive “gut” feelings.
For example, if you’ve been hurt, rejected, or criticized, you may have noticed your tendency to try to protect your vulnerable heart…
You may have experienced your ribs tightening, your thoracic spine stiffening, or your breath becoming more shallow — all of which can lead to feelings of anxiety, sadness, and tension in your shoulders and a tightening in your heart.
In this module, you’ll:

Identify which emotions are held in your heart center
Sense the difference between giving and receiving with an open heart, rather than a defended heart
Learn to embody the physical postures and breathing patterns of tenderness and compassion
Experience a breathing meditation to expand your lungs and release tension in your ribs
Enjoy a beautiful seated movement lesson that uses self-compassion to soften your ribs

MODULE 6: CLARIFY WHO YOU TRULY ARE — ALIGNING INTENTION WITH ACTION (FEBRUARY 20)

Many of us have a tendency to distract or even sabotage ourselves from achieving our goals. If your intention, for example, is to write a novel, you may find that you’re avoiding it by busying yourself with anything but working on it. Or, if you know you want to end a problematic relationship, you might instead stay in it, despite your unhappiness…
What does this avoidance have to do with the way you physically move?
In this class session, you’ll learn how listening to the information from your nervous system creates both pleasure and pain in your life choices. By recognizing how you get in your own way and gaining clarity about the internal blind spots that sabotage your intentions, you’ll learn to hone in on what you really want — whether it’s pain-free movement, or the person of your dreams.
In this module, you’ll:

Heighten your awareness of how you move, think, sense, and feel
Explore your personal blind spot
Experience a body scan that identifies physical patterns that may be holding you back
Practice a movement to help identify your “parasitic habits” — such as self-sabotage and self-criticism — and receive insights for improving your movements and your intentions

MODULE 7: ACTIVATING YOUR VISIONARY CAPABILITIES — INTUITION, MANIFESTING & ENACTING YOUR VISION (FEBRUARY 27)

By this time in the course, you know what your holding patterns are and what’s been in your way. You’ve unlocked innumerable possibilities. In this session, you’ll discover how to listen to yourself and envision what you want. Moshe Feldenkrais said that his method is intended to help people “realize their avowed and unavowed dreams, to restore each person to their human dignity.”
We tend to put our dreams aside for so long… we even forget we had them. It’s time, right now, to re-envision your dreams… to see what’s necessary to achieve them… and to understand how to elegantly overcome the obstacles in our path…
In this final module, you’ll:

See your goals, and the path to manifest them in a new light
Create your own mandala of intention, to help you towards clarifying your dreams
Receive a movement lesson — culminating all that you’ve learned in this course — linking joyful movement with your ability to see with your mind and heart
Interrupt your habitual way of “trying” by intentionally failing
Delight in the experience of “pandiculation” (imagine a cat waking up)
