On relative conjugate movement

"...We have the ability to plan self-produced intentional action, and we can decide to its realization or even to give it up altogether. When performing it, we can monitor it, and change its course if it seems appropriate to do so. We have, in other words, an image of any intentional action that precedes that action, and, while that action is being carried out, we can follow it and com­ pare any intermediate phase with the intended result, and perhaps correct the doing, if needed..."

From the foreword by Eleanor Criswell Hanna 

"...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 this 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..."
