Welcome to the Expand Your Ability Podcast.


I'm your host, Jeffrey Schwinghammer. This show delves into the nuanced interplay of body, mind, emotions, power, and choice.


Are these scenarios familiar to you?

  • Your body feels rigid and tense, a constant knot in your back, and shoulders perpetually hunched.
  • Your inner critic relentlessly berates you for the smallest slip-ups.
  • Hobbies you once cherished now collect dust because your energy is drained.
  • You sense an emptiness, a nagging feeling that something essential is absent.
  • You catch yourself thinking, "Here I am again, stuck doing the same damn thing again."

If any of these resonate with you, this podcast is for you.

When we become disconnected from our bodies, emotions, and sensations, we drift, hide, and self-sabotage. But this is not your fault. Life experiences, like family, school, joys, and pains, have molded us into these patterns of insecurity and repetition.

But here's the good news: you can break free from these cycles. We can rewire our experiences, tapping into the rich resources of our bodies to do so.

Enter the Feldenkrais Method—a mindful movement practice centered on curiosity, play, and self-awareness. I'm Jeffrey Schwinghammer, a graduate of an accredited Feldenkrais Method® training program, and I found this method as a solution to my chronic tension, restricted voice, and insecurity.

Over the years, I've delved deep into this practice, distilling its wisdom. My mission with this podcast is to help you understand yourself and your world, enabling you to shift from insecurity to flow.

I'm thrilled to have you on this mind(body)-expanding journey. Let's move forward together.
