The Big Tease

If your system has gotten stuck in the chronic pain place, paying attention to fresh data and creating a safe, post-crisis vibe is important. Here's a third: the big tease. Entice, provoke, seduce.... bewilder, lightly challenge and even irritate (but never scare) your system. Feldenkrais does this all the time. If there is something that perplexes me about his lessons, it usually works to assume that he's trying to tease awake a slumbering interoceptive system. Over time, I'll write about these tricks so you can make up your own, but of course the best thing is to do the lessons. (That's my only pitch—sign up now!)
