There is a bond when you touch or are touched by someone. That simple act is not only caring but has deep scientific principles. When do we bond with someone? It's the person who touches us in a way that is pleasing from the inside out.
When you are looking to offer someone help through touch. The initial thought is how to 'fix' them. What can I do to help you is the underlying cause, but we tend to think 'it would be so much better if you could.....'
I was taught that you can't touch or move this slowly. I took that as a challenge. I started thinking about the hidden application of touch. The bond or movement when a person doesn't know or think to know that you are touching them. It's that gentle.
Through many Movement Lesson™ sessions, I found and teach that true touch can be applied with the principles of gravity. When touch is slow, gentle and with rotational properties. An outer body can be applied to and inner body in unity.

At the same time, when there is touch applied without this science, there is more of a quality of a slap. In this video you see how the two bodies repel with different responses in opposing force
Learn to touch through Movement Lesson is learning to touch through gravity. That is how each of us should move - through gravity.
