This time, it’s personal

Since its inception 22 years ago, Feldenkrais Summer Camps have explored all sorts of topics, from classic themes, such as breathing better, to innovative subjects, such as using a doorway to improve your balance and coordination.

This summer’s curriculum takes a different approach. This time, it’s personal.

That’s because I’m going to teach lessons that helped me get through the double-whammy of coping with the coronavirus epidemic and dealing with my cancer diagnoses. (Yes, I’m using the plural of diagnosis because I had to face two bouts of cancer in the past three years.)

This year’s program, The Power Within, consists of the ATMs I relied on to diminish anxiety, move past the miserable moments, and find hope. I will be teaching proven antidotes to life’s difficulties and dilemmas. 

There won’t be any abstract ideas or fluffy banalities. I promise concrete, usable, practical lessons that give you the means to adjust your attitude. They’re not about changing the world or ignoring problems; they’re about changing one thing in our control: how we respond to what’s happening.

I can’t know what you’ve been through or what you’re dealing with now, but I do know I’m not the only one with challenges. That’s why I’m offering what has worked — and continues to work — for me . . . and the people in my classes and private practice. 

Won’t you join us?
