From seniors looking to regain their youthful vitality to athletes looking to decrease their recovery time, animal based somatic movements can help you
Most people would agree that their bodies were at their best when they were young. Anything you wanted to do you simply did without giving it a second thought. Run, jump, and recover from any sport almost instantly. It was almost like you had a superpower that you didn't really appreciate. Didn't appreciate, that is, until you started to lose it.
For most of us as soon as we hit our mid twenties we get our first inklings of age. After playing your favorite sport you likely discovered that you just stay sore that much longer. Your back, particularly your lower back, starts to ache and complain. As time passes these little aches and pains can accumulate until they are literally crippling. Our muscles can get so tight that just getting out of bed can be a chore and walking requires a cane. Most people just accept this as part of the aging process and believe there is nothing to be done about it. Right? Wrong!
The truth is that there is nothing natural about growing feeble as we age. This is a condition unique to humans that is unknown in the animal kingdom. Most doctors and physical educators don't know this, but all vertebrate mammals by instinct perform simple movements that allow them to reset their brains and relax their muscles. Relaxed muscles are the key to maintaining youthful flexibility and movement. Humans have this instinct as well but we lose it within our first few years of life as our higher brain functions become active. If you know what to do, however, you can regain this ability through the power of somatic movements.
Somatic movements allow you to relearn how to exploit your brains natural self-healing properties so that you can regain the feel of a youthful body. When you learn how to perform these somatic movements properly these are some of the benefits your can expect:
