From the Author
When I began studying the Alexander Technique, I wanted a way to bring the teacher's helpful words back to me as I tried out the concepts on my own. Nothing was available. This book fills that gap, and provides topics and words to keep students moving forward at their own pace.
From the Inside Flap
Between lessons, many students ask their teachers, "How can I practice?" The purpose of this book is to assist your exploration of the Alexander Technique both with and without a teacher present. It provides simple activities for you to practice pausing, noticing, inhibiting, directing and allowing. On some lessons, you may want to work with your teacher until you understand the words and directions kinesthetically. There is space on each page for you and your teacher to add thoughts and directions specific to you. The guiding words in each lesson will help you avoid falling back into your habitual ways. Think of Guided Lessons as multiple opportunities to explore your self. I envision a "Lesson" taking 5 to 15 minutes or more, depending on your schedule and interest. Each activity is merely a starting point; you can travel in whatever direction you wish. Lessons can be repeated over and over, because they are never exactly the same.
