Eutony discipline comes from personal experience and initiative of Gerda Alexander and their critical reflection on the different theoretical currents of philosophy, psychology, sociology, health and education of the twentieth century. Synthesis represents a double both as a new type of disciplinary knowledge (ie proper discipline own identity and autonomy of the disciplines that form) and his understanding of the human being integrate psychosomatic aspects, emotions, experiences, movement, expression and conscience. While
eutony born in the field of movement, many experiences that allow us to practice eutony and outcomes such as psychological growth and creative people who practice it, have overcome this field. It has expanded its influence towards the development of the human being, with health implications from the standpoint of physical and psychosocial development of their creative abilities. So today is used in areas such as education, health prevention, quality of life, sports, stress management and art in all its manifestations, at different stages of life from pregnancy to the elderly.
Eutony The word is a synthesis (eu = harmony, monotony = tone, stress) which was coined to account for a dynamic concept, the ability to constantly adapt to the situation and timing. One can perceive this fluctuation adaptive in 3 areas: ------
- muscle activity, the difficulty of achieving such flutuación can occur both in hypertonic (tensions, contractions, muscle shortening, generating postural attitudes, manners, limited bodily functioning, musculoskeletal Desejo) and hypotonic (areas without postural reflex ability or right tone, creating zones of instability in the structure osteoarticular). ------
- vegetative or autonomous activity, with areas of predominantly sympathetic-tonic or tonic vagus-fixed, creating areas which suffer bodily transformations that can come to be regarded as diseases in themselves or propitiate. ------
- psychodynamic activity where emotional tones can be seen fixed in psychopathological terms can be considered as anxiety, depression or difficulty coping with the different circumstances of life.
The loss of this adaptive capacity in areas of the mind-body or all of the financial accounts of Eutony, dystonia, which accounts for energy insinuate that do not allow full expression of being. Eutony is a holistic discipline, understanding this as a way of understanding reality in terms of wholes in integrated processes. Holistic consciousness conceives life as an institution, a development unit, which is much greater than the sum of its parts.
Today we know the links and interactions constant between the tone and brain activity, the close relationship of our psyches with postural tone, the autonomic nervous system and the set of physiological regulations. For these different pathways is manifested in our body conscious and unconscious part of our personality. Therefore, every change of consciousness acts on the set of muscle tensions.
Eutony place in scientific development a look at the fluctuation of muscle tone. In muscle function has a component of the tension of the muscles that for the majority of individuals, not part of the conscious and voluntary control. Awareness of this feature tone and attitude that is, through the development of self-observation and tonic regulation, to detect fixations in areas that lost their ability to hover at its base voltage.
The eutonist works, based on a set of technical principles, the difficulties of tonic fluctuations. Only when the abnormally low or high is fixed there is hypotonia or hypertonia in the medical sense. The concepts involved here on fixations in hypertonic and hypotonic medium tone all belong to a spectrum semiological subtle, ie not to be confused with situations of hyper-or hypotonic with neurological damage.
