Modern life is hard on our bodies. Stress and tension lead to backaches, headaches, stiff necks, and other common ailments - which we all too often accept as being part of the wear and tear of life. The Alexander Technique shows it need not be that way. Developed by F. M. Alexander in the last century, the Technique is a unique system designed to increase awareness of body and mind, helping to reduce unnecessary tension. The relationship between the head, neck, and back is recognized as crucial to how we function. In this comprehensive and beautifully illustrated book, Glynn Macdonald shows how the Alexander Technique can change the vitality of body and mind. It is an expert guide that serves both as an ideal introduction to the therapy, and as an invaluable resource to those familiar with the Technique.
