There are countless times a day I find myself in my old "comfortable" habits. And then I immediately get frustrated with myself, "Oh. My. Goodness. Why am I in this position?! Haven't I learned anything through my AT years?" etc. etc.
Then of course after that, I tell myself, "it's alright... we all have habits. Even my teachers fall into their habits." While I try to convince myself of this message, I secretly still wish I was "doing better" with AT. I want to be a prize pupil. I want to have amazing use all the time so that I my future self will thank me!
(sigh)
I think I'll be having this conversation for awhile.
This Blog is a way for me to verbalize my experience around the study, practice, and teaching of The Alexander Technique. As I explore some of my discoveries in AT, I will be experimenting with language... attempting to articulate my perceptions. Your thoughts, insights, and experiences are MORE than welcome!
What is The Alexander Technique?
NEVER HEARD OF The Alexander Technique? Simply put, it is a system of psycho-physical re-education. It helps people re-learn how to use their whole self (mind and body) so that they can function with greater ease. For more information, check out this website: AlexanderTechnique.com. Also, please check out my first blog post as an introduction to F. M. Alexander.
