Out of caution, we start avoiding movements \u2014 sometimes consciously, often without noticing. Over time, your movement repertoire becomes smaller without you realizing it.  <\/p><p>I recognize this very clearly myself. When I had chronic back pain, I did everything I could to avoid lifting. I had all kinds of clever tricks: placing my shopping bag in exactly the right way so I only had to \u201chang\u201d it, not actually lift it. Years later, after the pain had already disappeared through Feldenkrais, I suddenly noticed that I could lift a crate effortlessly.<br>That moment felt liberating: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feldenkraisutrecht.nl\/en\/making-better-use-of-your-possibilities\/\">letting go of an old program<\/a> that had once been necessary, but no longer made sense.   <\/p><p>We all have these unconscious programs.
