ideomotor theory
what is ideomotion?
ideomotion can be described as an instintive automatic expression that couples dominant mental representations to motor action without intermediary volition. ideomotion includes unconscious and involuntary movements, as well as homeostatic corrective functions.
conscious vs. subconscious volition
the conscious mind filters from the unconscious mind, not specific states, but a spectrum. the parts of the mind that an individual is aware of, have probably been filtered (to meet the needs and be responsive to to environmental demands) by the parts of the mind that an individual are not usually conscious of. in order to enchance access to abilities that the conscious self does not normally have access to, the volition of intellect is not used, but rather the volition of intuition. intellect is not as efficient as intuition, because the mind is what seems to separate. when operationing with the volition of intuition, there is an inner sensitivity to natural order.
volition of the intuition in perception and action
movements driven by ideomotor actions are unique in that they feel indepent of desires and emotions, yet, they are driven by prior expectations and preconditions. although usually associated with involuntary motion, ideomotor theory provides a very compelling explanation for the generation of goal-oriented actions.
unwinding to create structrual order and coherence
the aim of fascial unwinding is to overcome adhesions and bring together and cancel out twists and counter-twists. this cancelation of torsional forces aims to move the fascial network from a locked up, higher energy, stiff ‘gel’ state back to a lower energy, fluid ‘sol’ state. a unique property of this sol state is it can sense absolute measurements within the body, not just changes! the sol state is capable of sensing and knowing real complete map information, not just relative partial map information. this complete condition can only be accessed by the subconscious.
ideomotor learning and fascial unwinding
proprioceptive information, through learning and emotions, has mental representations of the specific actions that caused them. these learned emotional mental representations form sensory anticipations that can trigger involuntary ideomotor movements. in ideomotor leatning, movements and their ensuing effects become associated, so that prediction of an effect for any given movement is possible. this association is bidirectional, so that anticipation of the required movement directly triggers the actions that have been learned to produce those effects. with an understanding of causality within biomechanics, movement patters can be selected where the ideomotion can facilitate a facial unwinding.
liquid-crystal memory in fascia
when a polymeric structure forms in the body, information is encoded onto its structure. all cell in the body can store memories within the microtubules. the microtubule acts like a computer in that microtubule associated proteins (map's) can attach to the microtubule, and information is stored by the orientation of the tubulin monomers and by the position of the attachment of the map. the information then that is stored on a microtubule can be erased by depolymerizing it, this happens every time a cell divides, but could also happen through pressure, temperature change, magnetic fields, electric fields, and other forms of energy.

role of sensory information in sensorimotor learning
motorsensory feedback tests show that, if you are the one who performed an action, the senses will be synchronized with that action, bc that's what you expect shld happen! when the mind and body are both in-tune with how the body and mind thinks and feels, sensory adaptation is not necessary! the processes that precede voluntary movement include an unconscious planning stage that leads to an anticipatory awareness of the impending movement. this leads to the experience of when the action occurs in time.
dissociation btwn voluntary action and conscious experience
when an ideomotor response is present, the senses are not synchronized to the action, as the conscious mind/body has become misaligned with the subconscious perception of the body. in an effort to restore alignment btwn subconcious and conscious perception and action, the subconscious becomes the primary driver in accessing proprioceptive patterns, in an attempt to restore motor output.
