This book will have you break free of all stress and glide among people like a feather carried by gentle breeze. It reveals the technique used by many actors and performers, like Keanu Reeves and Sting, to always seem comfortable and confident. How to break habit, conquer stage-fright, maintain a healthy posture, and look attractive all the time? All questions answered in this display of The Alexander Technique, still taught today, a century after its introduction. It’s a routine that can be learned and applied by anyone. It teaches how to gain conscious control over movement and breath, eliminating physical pains and persistent fatigue. “Every man, woman, and child holds the possibility of physical perfection.” Instead of common methods, like medication or therapy, Fredrick Alexander aims to improve quality of life by creating better conditions for the body. “I look to that wonderful instrument, the human body, for the true solution of our difficulty,” he writes. Although Alexander’s methods were unprecedented, they continue to be one of the most used among elite communities, and this book hands them to you in their original, untainted quality. “I know that I shall be regarded in many quarters as a revolutionary and a heretic, for my theory and practice, though founded on a principle as old as the life of man, are not in accord with, nor even a development of,the tradition which still obtains.”

Store Description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
