Eric Franklin : to create stillness you must balance the forces

The Franklin Method

One of the greatest discoveries of the 21st century is the plasticity of the brain. It is known now that the lives we live, shape the brain we develop. The Franklin Method is at the forefront of practical neuro-plasticity; showing you how to use your brain to improve your body's function. It teaches you how to harness the transforming power of the mind. It can be applied to improve all of your abilities. It all starts with the knowledge that we have the power to change.

To activate the body/mind function we use Dynamic Imagery, Experiential Anatomy and Reconditioning Movement.

• Dynamic Imagery is a multi sensory and kinesthetic way of using the brain to affect movement and function.
• Experiential Anatomy gives you direct physical awareness of your body's function and design.
• Reconditioning Movement integrates dynamic imagery with experiential anatomy to produce optimum function.

Organ Movement for Health, Strength, and Flexibility

The organs of our bodies are generally not considered when it comes to training the body. The connection between our organs and movement are myriad: there are ligaments that connect the organs amongst each other and to the muscles and bones. Compression and suction forces relate the organs to all the surrounding structures.

In these workshops we will explore the relationship between breath, movement and the organs.
We will experience how the organs influence our posture, movement and flexibility. The result will be a general feeling of well-being. Our tools will be imagery, gentle movement and self-touch.
