AWAKEN WITH THE TRAGER^® APPROACH
by Elizabeth Rohack

     A profound way of n o t i c i n g . . . f e e l i n g . . . being . . .

     Discover a profound way of noticing, feeling and being … a way of giving yourself the spaciousness that your body/mind has not experienced in a long time, or perhaps even forgotten. Receiving a Trager Session provides restorative self-care movement for your body, stillness for your mind and nourishment for your spirit. This harmonious alignment of body/mind/spirit integrated with the gentle touch of a Trager Tablework Session and effortless self-care movements open the door for new information to come in and healing to occur. You begin “be-ing” and moving in a different way … an easier, softer way.

     How can you give our self space in your body … space in your brain … space in your spine … space in your breath? A simple pause between inhaling/exhaling allows for awareness to seep in. To give space, one must feel stillness or pausing, connect with our breath and feel the body in full awareness and presence -- that creates an exquisite experience that taps into our brain rewiring. Neurons begin talking to each other; synapses begin firing; stimulation and growth is renewed again! We feel refreshed and quietly energized; have a sense that something is different and we want to bask in this feeling of “pleasantness” forever. Recalling this feeling through visualization and movement is core to healing and change. We do that with Trager Mentastics®. Movement Re-education. With continued practice, we begin to “awaken” and notice things differently. We become more possibility-oriented and live fully in the moment, honoring the sacredness of our body/mind and are more present for others. Miracles happen in this open, accepting “as-is” state of being.
