Feldenkrais on Awareness

Awareness is the highest stage in man's development, and when it is complete it maintains a harmonious rule over the body' s activities.  When an individual is strong, so are his passions, and his abilities and vitality are the same scale.  It is impossible to suppress these prime movers without reducing his total potential.  The improvement of awareness is preferable to any attempt to overcome instinctive drives, for the more nearly complete a man's awareness becomes the more he will be able to satisfy his passions without infringing on the supremacy of awareness, and every action will have become more human.

Increase of awareness will help one find a way out of confusion and free one's energies for creative work.
