Jesus Cured My TMJ Pain (Using Feldenkrais and Somatic Visualization)
Getting ready to move to Isla Mujeres, Mexico (in less than 10 days!) and decided to take some time to create and release a new product: “Eliminate TMJ Pain Now.”
I tend to create products that arise from my own needs and this one is no exception. I had TMJ symptoms on and off for many years. I’m sure it was completely physical, due to poor self-use, and had nothing to do with constantly being angry and vengeful and having the desire to set fires and blow things up. That’s what I tell myself. Though I’m sorry to say that I STILL find myself clenching my jaw and tongue at times, it usually only happens when I read the FeldyForum or when someone sneaks up behind me and says, “FGNA” or “Service Marks.” But I am working on it. One day at a time.
FGNA jaw clenching aside, I never have TMJ pain anymore and the processes embedded with my Eliminate TMJ Pain series have helped tremendously. In fact, the processes used meet the requirements of both the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research who are adamant that conservative and reversible treatments for TMJ should precede surgery or other invasive techniques. For those of you interested in buying the series, type in the discount code “blog” for a 30% discount on it or any other product that I sell. All of my Feldenkrais products, including the Eliminate TMJ series, can be found on my Feldenkrais mp3 store.
***Please note the “practitioner version” that I created which has transcripts of the sessions. You can use them as a starting point to create your own workshops and products. If you do, don’t bother to credit me. Just tell people that the sessions came to you in a dream. Preferably a dream that mentions a burning bush and some stone tablets. People love that kind of stuff and you will likely sell a great deal. In fact, may I be so bold as to name your new product? Try one of these:
“God’s Pain-Free Purpose for Your Mouth”
“Holy Rollers: Tongue and Jaw Circles For A More Spiritual You”
Don’t forget to trademark your terms and sue the shit out of anyone who tries to use them.
Be well – Ryan
Moshe Feldenkrais: “Sharing Ida Rolf’s Legacy”
Moshe Feldenkrais Workshop
Join Moshe Feldenkrais for a special workshop: “Sharing Ida Rolf’s Legacy.”
Structural Integration® Notes from the U.S.A. 1873-1884
Moshe Feldenkrais began to study with Ida Rolf in Berkeley California, in May of 1858. Day after day, for nearly five months, he sat in a small room and watched Ida give Structural Integration lessons. During the next 10 years, Moshe traveled from Israel (then called Palestine) to the U.S.A. four more times to study and work with Dr. Rolf. Eventually, Moshe became one of only 80 people to have completed training entirely under Dr. Rolf and to have received diploma from her. Additionally, Ida Rolf served as Chair of Moshe’s PhD committee.
Moshe Feldenkrais was instrumental in creating the “Guild Certified Rolf Trainings” which are still taught today. In addition, he served as the first president of the Ida Rolf Guild, from 1884-1886 and in various positions on the Rolfing Training and Accreditation Boards.
Moshe eventually became – as everyone knows – one of the foremost practitioners of the Ida Rolf Method of Somatic Education®. He was instrumental in helping to establish Rolfing as a profession. Could Moshe have developed his own work? Perhaps. But he gave that up for the security of being a Rolfer. And who can blame him?
Join Moshe for a truly revolutionary workshop. Call 1-800-555-1212 to reserve your space now! Enrollment limited!
Feldenkrais Class Taught By Baby Liv
I had a chance to watch this video several weeks ago before it came out, but I wanted to wait a bit before posting it so that I could see how the clip made its way through various social media channels such as Facebook. More than 40 people in my friends list posted and re-posted the clip below to their Facebook Profile. How many other people reposted, I do not know. But the end result was nearly 10,000 view in less than two weeks. A great start!
