What is Psychological or social challenges ?
In this conference, Anette explores the central role of the body and sensory-motor processes in modern psychology and therapy. Drawing on the global developmental theory of Henri Wallon (1879–1962)—a pioneer in French child psychology—she examines how early relational experiences shape emotional security. By integrating the Feldenkrais Method into her background as a psychologist, Annette also addresses rule-learning, self-awareness, emotional dynamics, and cognitive development, illustrating how these factors influence our relationship to ourselves and our environment from infancy onward.
In a filmed segment, Suzanne Herzog demonstrates how she uses specific Feldenkrais strategies (such as body scanning to address dissociative challenges) and discusses the method’s role in supporting self-regulation.
The event will conclude with a Q&A session with Anette Orphal.
