Foundational Movements

Hello and welcome!  My name is Adrienne Engel.  I will be your guide as you establish a foundation of embodied connection.   


Each of these exercises helps you to gently re-establish a conscious connection to your body, and it's sensory messages. As you use the
Ag-el™ (agile) technique taught here, you'll be slowing down the pace of your motion, while directing the expansion and contraction movement of your breathing deep into the areas of held tension in your body. Think of it as an internal micro-massage.  This combination of gentle movement and directed breathing effectively re-connects you with chronically held tension so that you can gently begin to move, heal, and reintegrate your whole being. Your muscles are meant to move with ease.   

When done slowly, and within your comfort zone, you will dramatically increase the flow of all your major circulatory networks.  Less is more. Pick one or two motions a day that directly relates to where your body has worked hard. Combine these movements with the other InBodyMeant processes like the Rest and Awareness Practices,  and you will experience a momentum of integration and a more profound sense of inner peace.

Let's get started!
