If your muscle tension is a problem,
learn to pandiculate. It’s easy.

When you Yawn, you’re naturally pandiculating. It’s a cycle of pleasurable contraction, followed by a relax.
Cats pandiculate 30-40 times a day to clear their practiced tensions and remain exquisitely supple.

The contraction phase clarifies your body perception and restores your brain’s eroded map of your body.

A slow controlled relax phase allows you to restore better voluntary control over muscle tension. Use these movements to exercise your ability to be in control of the tensions that keep you stuck. You can begin to get unstuck.

As you build your skills, pandiculation becomes an extraordinary way to change tension habits. The Eric Cooper Somatics Method helps you learn super-controlled pandiculations that allow you to focus on your patterns of tension, and then teach your nervous system to let them go.

Pandiculation is how your brain and muscles naturally reset their muscle tension balance.
Pandiculation is not only easy—it’s enjoyable and deeply rewarding.
