You are the feedback loop! Tuesdays and Thursdays ...come take a Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® Lesson. Give yourself feedback!

Rubikcubeoctahedron!

If you gave a blind person a traditional Rubik's cube (just hypothetically) and asked him or her to make a move once per second, they could have worked on it since the big bang and sill not have ordered the colors on the faces randomly, by chance. Without a feedback loop of information letting you know if you are getting closer to or further away from the solution (being able to see the colors), it would take more a lot longer than 13.8 billion years to randomly come upon the solution to something with 43 quintillion (43,252,003,274,489,856,000) possible permutations. However, given the proper feedback of being able to see a Rubik's cube, it has been calculated that any cube can be solved in no more than 20 moves. So, by moving your hands once per second you could technically solve any Rubik's cube in 20 seconds or less
(some people can actually do it in under 6 seconds! : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCrTrtxAUbA )

The difference between 20 seconds and 13.8 billion years is quite a difference and it all comes down to wether you have a feedback loop of information or not, self-informing the system. It certainly seems like the universe has a serious feedback loop of information to, for example, be able to order all the 100 trillion atoms that make up each of your 100 trillion cells and have them all perfectly communicating with each other so that all we have to do is eat, drink, sleep and dream and our biology does the rest.

WE (all biology) ARE the feedback mechanism the universe uses to learn more about itself...

Good article on on a product that inhibits natural developmental movement.

"By positioning babies in an unnatural posture without access to the sensory input they require for development, we are really doing a disservice and interfering with an important and natural progression of development." R. Talmund

"Habits make change possible by freeing us from decision making and from using self-control." BP

"You don't have to get rid of a bad (unwanted) habit, just put a better one on top of it." -Shihan Nobu Iseri

For me, the routine of group practice allows the movements to be repetitively novel by changing partners. As we do in Gung Fu, Aikido and Push Hands. This gives the bodymind just enough interest to stay out of automatic mode so learning remains interesting.

While learning and practicing The Feldenkrais Method® in both Awareness Through Movement® and Functional Integration® - although sometimes in a group, one on one or by ourselves on the floor or chair - we move (or imagine our movements) with the intention that AWARENESS of habitual patterns will become cognitive. For once we learn to move in a way that gets the job done, often we rarely change our preferences.

When we deeply practice change and novelty to the point where whatever it is becomes habit, whether distructive or uplifting, it is the practice of AWARENESS that forever refreshes our lives for potential change leading to happiness, comfort and ultimately the strongest if all- LOVE.
