I think about bones a lot. My training in the Feldenkrais Method is probably the main reason for it – but I thought about bones even before that training. I’ve broken several bones over the course of my life – so that’s one awareness I developed early. Age eight? I think? Or seven? When did I chip that elbow? I was nine when I broke my wrist and ten when I broke the other one.
Then in my teens I started going for Alexander Technique lessons and that got me thinking about bones in the whole skeleton.
I understand the sensation of feeling an ache in ones bones – it feels like a very deep tired – but technically I understand that it is not possible to feel an ache in your bones. There aren’t nerves in our bones – even if it feels like we feel them.
