Birth, Reflexes & Change
With Renate Wennekes During pregnancy our main senses are already developed: the sense for movement, for feeling, the ear for listening and balance. The birth changes a lot. For the senses it is like a very strong cut. The conditions of life after birth mean for the senses a development backwards. The baby has to use all his genetic and acquired abilities to team together again, to learn how to adapt in this new surrounding and to develop in the air. This principle that each developmental step forward is accompanied by changed conditions we have to get used to, we can watch through out whole life long development. We have a lot of difficulties to accept the necessary step backwards. Changed life conditions very often make us insecure and we feel helpless. These reactions we often interpret as regressions or as wrong steps. In this course we want to balance for changing life situations. We take birth as an example.
