calm the mind September 2, 2008

As a Certified Polestar Pilates Studio Teacher and Hellerwork Practitioner, daily I explore varied ways to communicate with clientele, to get them inside their bodies and to slow down. I believe that with the proper education anyone can move intelligently, gracefully and without pain. It is my responsibility as a teacher to connect with each person that walks through my studio doors and help them feel the movement that spirals from the inside out. This connection is what you will discover with Anita. Her descriptive instructions make sure that absolutely anyone can do these exercises to release tension, slow the breathing and consequently calm the nervous system; a place to begin healing.
Joseph Pilates said," if your spine is inflexibly stiff at 30 you are old, if it is flexible at 60 you are young!"
Anita steps up to prove that these simple exercises will unwind your body and your mind or vice versa. Everyday is a new day and if you've mastered the moves, I suggest trying them again as you find something different in every moment.
Thank you Anita your work is appreciated !
May all beings be well,

Easy to understand for us klutzes January 25, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I write most of each day, and by evening I'm aching from both the posture at the keyboard AND the stress of trying to be creative. What I really appreciate about "Relieve Stiffness" is that so many of the exercises can be done right at the desk and that they make sense to those of us who have difficulty understanding exercise instructions. "Hula hoop" and "Swing" I can understand and duplicate! If I spent a few minutes each hour with an exercise like "Easy sway" or "Back and forth," I'd significantly reduce my stiffness at day's end. I'm making this a goal for 2008!

I loved Anita's book on undulation. It's an effortless way to get my body moving. I do a little undulation every morning to start my day, my body loves to wake up with this movement. I also use the undualtion movemnt in my Hellerwork practice, it really gets my clients connected to their bodies. Anyone can do this. I highly recommend this book.

 Treatment Tool December 21, 2007
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I am a licensed massage practitioner, many of my clients come to me seeking relief from neck and back pain. I use undulation during my treatment sessions. My clients can use it as a tool to assist me with releasing deep painful muscles around their spines. I found the photos in the book showing what direction the spine is in for each movement to be very helpful. Sharon Sandin,LMP
"Body friendly" and practical December 12, 2007
28 out of 28 found this review helpful
Why do I love this book? Let me count the ways:
1) The exercises in this book are very "body friendly". If something feels uncomfortable, just continue moving without making the one move that is uncomfortable, and soon the "stuck" spot starts moving. You don't have to hurt before you feel better.
2) I also find the movements give almost instant gratification - how often do you feel better and find relief in a matter of minutes?
3) But maybe the best thing is that you don't need any special clothes or equipment, and for some exercises you don't even have to stop what you are doing to get some relief. You can make small, unobtrusive movements (like when sitting in a meeting) and feel better. Since it is so easy I find myself doing it more often.
4) I have found that undulating in bed for just a few minutes before I get up in the morning starts the day with less stiffness.
I must mention that I am paralyzed from the waist down, so I can only do some of the exercises, but it is amazing to me that small movements can have such a big impact on improving how I feel. A great book.
