Releasing Pain: An Optimal Way To Ease Your Pain: Natural Pain Relief (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798732363982)

It should be recognized that conscious movement may be a trending term, but it's not a new concept. Tai Chi instructor John Turnbull notes the ancient practice of tai chi hinges on this style of slow, intentional, and careful movement that highlights the mind-body connection. Mindful exercise is a key component of the training we do, the first step is awareness of how one is standing and moving. Being conscious of how the whole body works together and using the minimum effort to move helps the way we move in all areas of life, including using proper structure, preventing injury, and achieving a calmer mind. Any physical activity can be done slowly and mindfully, however having someone watch one's posture is important, especially at first.

This book presents a simple method called "Conscious Movement", which is a way to reconnect with your body, notice chronic muscular tensions, and release trapped emotions. Posture and alignment, emotional health, mental clarity, and joyful living will become your default as you practice Conscious Movement.
