Breathing and the Diaphragme - take a sip of life

We breath. We breath all the time. It's an autonomic function of the body. So what makes it into such an incredible tool for reaching deeper into ourselves? into our emotional body?

The answer is that the breathing is an action that can be controlled both by the Autonomic nervous system and by the somatic one. We can choose to alter or control the breath rhythm rate or depth by will, but at the end of the day, most of the time we don't need to pay attention to it... it keeps happening by itself.

The above fact is what makes the breath into a bridge between the consciousness and the subconsciousness. If we'll start paying attention to it during the day (almost an impossible mission) we'll see how it changes according to our feelings at the moment.

To breath is to take a sip from life. The deeper the inhalation the bigger the sip.
The exhalation is the second stage in the process - letting it all go. accepting. surrendering.

Is there a symmetry between my inhalation and exhalation?
Is there a good wave like flow or is it fragmented?

When we love the moment we want to take a big mouthful of life. When depressed we rather just survive with a shallow breath.

The Diaphragm is a dome like muscle, separating between our thoracic and abdominal space.When we inhale, the diaphragm contracts and flattens down so it "pushes the belly out". When we exhale it relaxes and goes back to it's dome shape. the belly "is going back in".

What can we learn from looking at the movement of  the diaphragm? can only awareness of it affect and better the flow?

”Behind every cronically tense muscle, there is a secret..”
Marion Rosen

WHAT IS IT?This unique poster is a comprehensive tool, not only for body therapists and psychotherapists to have on their clinic’s wall, but also for all people who are interested in learning the language of their emotions through the body.

The main principles are:

•The body, with it’s parts and organs is our expression vehicle in life.

•There is a constant movement of feelings and emotions in the body which are responded by changes in breathing and tension in the muscles.

•This flow, and the blocks in this flow are the sum total of our emotional structure, form and posture.

•The physical function of the body part can be “translated” into the emotional function and become understood.

FOR WHO?
All students and therapists in the fields of:
• Body oriented psychotherapy
• massage
• Rosen Method
• Gestalt therapy
• psycosynthesis
• Bioenergetic analysis
• Yoga
• Feldenkrais
• all people interested in bodymind connection
The poster will not supply you with cold facts but with a simple way of looking at the body-mind connection. It’s a tool for understanding your/the client’s symptoms and to deepen any therapeutic process and dialogue.

ABOUT US…
AND WHY WE MADE IT

ITZHAK DERY
is a massage and a Rosen Method practitioner who works in the field since 2003.
He searched for an interactive tool that would increase self awareness in himself and his clients and would gather all the information into one source.
When he failed to find one, he made one himself.
The knowledge gathered here can be related to the lineage of Wilhelm Reich, Alexander Lowen and many others. It is logic, simple and global.

THERESE TONNING

is an artist in fine arts, educated in the National College of Arts in Norway. She is a natural born healer and an autodidact.

The meeting between the two created the right conditions for this poster to be born.

The poster size is 50x70 cm, Glossy paper.
