The Alexander Technique is a unique way of releasing muscular tension throughout the body. It allows you to move with greater comfort and ease, and helps to relieve or prevent common aches and pains that can become debilitating in later life. This practical and informative guide clearly sets out the principles of this world-famous technique and shows you how to use them in your daily life. With the help of colour photographs, it reveals exactly how we place our bodies under excessive strain and how the Alexander Technique can help us to ease this tension and achieve a more relaxed muscular system. There are also plenty of exercises for you to practise at home, with handy hints on mistakes to avoid when you first start to practise the Technique.

"This is a book for everyone who has ever caught sight of themselves in a mirror and suddenly straightened their shoulders or pulled in their abdomen. Most of us stand awkwardly, walk badly and sit slouched. Modern society almost teaches us bad posture, starting with sitting for far too long at school, and eventually it causes damage to physical and mental well-being. Most books that I have read about the Alexander Technique are largely theoretical, this one is a truly practical guide with step-by- step exercises to get rid of bad habits and retune your posture and movements to the natural poise and grace of a child. Well written with easy to understand diagrams and illustrations." The Good Book Guide
An illustrated step-by-step guide to the Alexander Technique - the unique exercise system which improves breathing, posture and general well-being.
