This Feeling…
This DVD, structured like a music video, floats and churns uninterrupted for 15 minutes on Tigger Benford’s rippling marimba score. My commentary identifies some of the principles and points of view that make this work so distinctive and so personally meaningful.
It’s a visual treat, sensitively shot in close up, (and sometimes in slow motion) in order to evoke the fluid and lush pleasures of receiving a Trager® session. At various points, it focuses in on a quality of touch that is at once safe, casual, and extraordinarily sensual; on patterns of wave motion that range from pervasive to penetrating; and on joyous bounces that enliven body tissues and awaken body awareness.
It is built on hypnotic rhythms, so for full enjoyment, please watch it in a safe, comfortable, and undistracted environment.

Body ReMinder™ Playing Cards
Body ReMinder Playing Cards are tools to stimulate the exploration and integration of new feeling experiences in the body. There are three different decks of 48 cards each--the Sitting Deck, the Walking Deck, and the Driving Deck. Each deck includes cards that help in:
-
Developing body awareness through experiential anatomy (sensing location, actions, possible natural movements of the bones, muscles, connective tissues, organs, etc. in ever finer detail.)
-
Exploring and inviting positive, healthful feeling states (joy, lightness, freedom, ease, peace, etc.)
-
Calming, energizing and harmonizing body feeling (sensation, energy, and emotion)
-
Softening, reducing, and/or eliminating painful, uncomfortable, stuck, unbalanced movement patterns
-
Building, increasing, and/or enhancing pleasurable, fluid, balanced movement patterns
-
Moving and sensing in ways that help you feel re-connected with the life-giving, life-regulating force that surrounds and supports all living things
Sitting Deck
The Sitting Deck focuses on sensations and awarenesses that increase relaxation, pleasure and peacefulness while sitting. Whether at your desk, in meetings, on a train or plane, or by yourself in meditation, these light-hearted suggestions will guide you in staying present in your body no matter what else is going on.
Walking Deck
The Walking Deck brings attention to your many moving parts and how they could feel while in the simple action of walking. Whether walking from bedroom to kitchen, out to the car, around the nieghborhood, or on a hike in the mountains...whether getting exercise, going somewhere with purpose, or just taking a stroll for the pleasure of it...walking is a wonderful opportunity to connect with more joy in being in your body.
Driving Deck
The Driving Deck can be carried in your glove compartment so cards can be easily drawn before you set out on a long trip or at the start of your daily commute. Remember that while driving a car, the first responsibility is driving safely. These mind/body inquiries are only to help your driving experience become more enjoyable.
