TEXT
The idea relates to the benefits we have when we practice Paneurhythmy. We become in harmony with nature and we benefit by improving our physical health and our mental, emotional and social wellbeing.
"We have three figures: semicircular movements of the one leg in front of the other, swing steps consequently on both feet, and parallel movements of legs and arms. With the first figure we set in harmony the energies of the body. With the second figure we step consecutively on heels and toes, where the feet correspond to the physical world and the toes to the mental. When we step on heels we receive from from the physical world, when we step on toes - from the mental. In both we settle the contradictions which exist. All three figures open the way for the correct use of the benefits which nature gives us." (Беинса Дуно, Паневритмия, С., 1938, с.82)
