## Metadata - Author: [[Moshe Feldenkrais]] - Full Title: Embodied Wisdom - Category: #books ## Highlights - If there is to be a progressive development of one’s self-image, it is necessary to focus on completing the image in all of its dimensions—not simply in those dimensions with which one is most familiar. One does not know how breathing might be improved by an improvement in the functions of our digestion, nor what repercussion these two dimensions might have on our vision or our memory. A mathematician who is also a musician is not like other musicians; nor is the poet-musician like other poets—the added dimensions change the whole. It is when a self-image becomes more or less complete that we have a Leonardo da Vinci or a William Shakespeare.
