Medicine has called it homeostasis, which in its definition says: this word comes from the Greek and is made up of two words "homo" similar and "stasis" stability or state. It is considered to be a set of self-regulation phenomena, conducive to the maintenance of a relative constancy in the composition and properties of the internal environment of an organism. This concept was developed by the American physiologist Walter Bradford Cannon. Peter Levine observes that human capacity includes deep biological knowledge, which, given the opportunity, is not only capable of guiding the problem-solving process but can also eliminate it. On the other hand, Moshe Feldenkrais considers that one of the main obstacles that the human being has is the ignorance of himself, the ignorance from the scientific and cultural point of view that each individual has. If the person does not understand what is happening to him when he performs certain actions and how he performs them, it is difficult to change something, the above led him to propose the direction of learning to learn, in which he considers that each person can become more fair with themselves. It also states that we need to understand that talking is not the same as thinking or living an experience. He exposes that in interpersonal relationships asking why something happens and how it happens are not so clearly defined and are generally used indiscriminately from his point of view, while from a scientific point of view it is more common to know how things happen. things, which he considers more useful in the process of learning to observe within this scheme of learning to learn. Peter Levine considers that somatic experience was new in 1999, currently neurobiology and neurophysiology increasingly establish more relationships between the functioning of the nervous system and the expressions that people experience at the sensory-motor level, in fact nowadays every Once the circuits where these somatic expressions are generated are established, it is only necessary that in these connections they are integrated as a unit in the person.


Peter Levine considers the organism to be a complex structure of interdependent and subordinate elements whose relationships and properties are determined, to a large extent, by their function in the whole. The organism describes the whole of the human being, which is not derived from the sum of its individual parts, that is, bones, chemicals, muscles, organs, systems, etc., emerge from their complex dynamic interrelation. To study the organism, it is necessary to consider the person, that is, the body and mind, primitive instincts, emotions, intellect and spirituality. The vehicle through which we experience ourselves are the perceptual systems, which give information to our body through the fullness of our sensations, generating knowledge about us.


Moshe Feldenkrais, considers that there are certain universal factors that influence the existence of life and therefore in the organism, makes a look at the origin of life, where the first cells needed protection from the radiation that formed them but which in turn the amount of this radiation could kill them as easily as they were formed. Surface tensions, the relationship between surface and volume, gravitation, internal processes, external changes and effects, etc. Thus we can see how an organism is mediated between internal and external life, from its origin. He argues that when a group of particles or identical units act together they begin to have a higher order, giving themselves a new quality that did not exist in isolated units.This higher level is reached when the units participate in a common activity or when they support the same pressure. Thus we see how an organism is made up of a group of organs whose upper level is greater than the cells that make up each organ and the same organ that is part of the organism. He states that there are four characteristics that animals have and they are: 1.-Food, 2.-Conservation, 3.-Reproduction and 4.-Self-propel, on the other hand, in the plant kingdom, it only considers three that are reproduction, food and conservation. The vegetable kingdom is considered to be passive, they require the action of wind, rain, insects, animal fur, and other factors that the environment provides, in order to reproduce, feed, etc., without them. , the vegetation would perish. He thinks that self-propulsion or self-direction is the part of the animal kingdom that allows him to move, for which he comes to consider it the most important factor in the environment.
