Corollary Discharge, The Forgotten Link - Remarks on the Body-Mind Problem

by Yochanan Rywerant

Code: Ryw3, Mongraph, 35 pages.
List Price: $18.00
Your Price: $16.20

(with coupon)

Once an intention of action is formed, communication is sent from the motor system to the sensory systems to prepare the body for the intended movement.  This communication is called corollary discharge, a little-understood aspect of our neuromuscular functioning. Learned through repetition that is performed with sensory awareness, the corollary discharge is highly developed in people of skill (musicians, athletes, surgeons...) and becomes an integral part of their self image, allowing them to have ease, fluidity and congruence in their movements. 

Yochanan Rywerant brings this subliminal aspect of our selves to conscious awareness, both for the appreciation of the function and so that we may become more able to deeply sense and enhance our motor functioning. Through his mastery of mind-body education, he teaches us how to utilize corollary discharge to resolve conflicting patterns and open the channels of communication between our motor and sensory systems. 

Monograph, 35 pages.
