What is Sensobic?

Sensobic is self-awareness. It is an invitation to become more alive, more aware, more fully here. The word Sensobic comes from the words sensory (what we can experience with our senses) and bic, bios (life.) Sensobic is about awakening our ability to sense and feel what is happening in ourselves and the world around us.

Sensobic is a possibility to experience yourself as a whole

When we do Sensobic we move away from our minds to our bodies.

We do this with the help of small movements and everyday experiments. The movements can be as simple as placing a hand on a shoulder and feeling how the shoulder reacts to the touch, or standing and massaging the sole of one foot with a ball. How does this affect my foot, my leg, my shoulder, my breathing?

We can experiment with such everyday things as sitting, standing, walking and lying down. How do we do it? How does our breathing change when we go from sitting to standing?

When we do Sensobic, the leader guides us with suggestions and questions. The leader suggests, invites us to try different movements and experiments and asks guiding questions whose purpose is to help the participants perceive and experience.

The leader never corrects anyone. The leader is not an instructor who tells us how to stand, walk, sit or what to do to cure back pain. In Sensobic, the participants are allowed to discover for themselves. The emphasis is on what the organism tells us. When we gain better access to our senses, we can discover for ourselves where we are stiff, if our breathing is restricted and if we are preventing ourselves from living fully.

When we discover this, we can choose to change what needs to be changed, if we want to. Or we can feel our resistance to change and learn from it.

Most of us are born as sensory beings. But when we become educated and trained, it diminishes our vitality. Sensobic can bring back our vitality, our ability to sense.

Sensobic is not just about working with ourselves. It's very much about how we are with and treat other people. Because we work with our senses, we can also become more aware of our surroundings. The people around us, sounds, smells, colors. Everything our senses convey. We can become more aware of how we affect our surroundings and how they affect us. We can take that awareness with us into our daily lives.

Sensobic is not a method. There is no dogma. We do not follow a program. Each lesson is a new, unique experience. We can explore everything. How we move, how we wash the dishes, how we make sounds and so on.

We adapt to the participants. Sensobic is for all bodies and is suitable for everyone. There is always something we can do.
