mind and body are not one, and not two – Zen master Shunryu Suzuki

The initial release of the Flowing Body, Flexible Mind 7-hr audio program to calm the mind, relieve physical tension, and center the self was first released in 1995 on tape cassettes, and later on cd’s. The program is the product of years of training, practice, and certification as both Hakomi Body-centered psychotherapy and the Feldenkrais method of movement education.

By design, each audio lesson has several segments that work with the same parts of your body as the corresponding Rolfing session, engaging them gently in a broad range of moving relationships with each other. Over many years the lessons have drawn appreciative comments from customers around the world.

This long-overdue release in streaming audio format is prompted by two recent events.

First, several buyers, recalling the calming and centering effects of the program, can no longer play their old formats, have been asking.

And second, recent studies by five highly credible mental health organizations ( APA, MHA, PT, PSY, AIS) have all documented, in considerable detail, widespread and expanding social tension, anxiety, distraction, and social imbalance across America since control of the US government changed hands in 2025.

The continual chaos is purposefully disheartening,

These meditative movement explorations were specifically designed to calm the mind, relieve habitual tensions, and center the self in ways you will be able to feel after each lesson.

Two brief sample lessons are available to explore at no cost: one from our 7-hr audio streaming program, and one from our library of 62 step-by-step written lesson scripts you can explore at your own pace.
