Creating Feldenkrais Brain Maps
Briefly

The Feldenkrais Method's fourth principle, "Differentiation," posits that finer sensory distinctions enhance brain maps relating to movement and perception, thereby improving physical functioning. This method advocates for focusing on slow, deliberate movements to refine the body's awareness and its neuromuscular system. Researchers like Doidge highlight Feldenkrais' insight that achieving subtle movement distinctions can enhance neurological connections. By developing a greater understanding of body position and enhancing coordination, the practice fosters the development of more complex neural pathways and improved motor skills.
Focusing on subtle, slow, and deliberate movements improves body awareness and coordination, refining the brain's maps for smoother, more coordinated physical actions.
Feldenkrais emphasized that finer sensory distinctions enhance neurological connections, stimulating complex systems for motor control and movement perception.
