A DEMONSTRATION OF THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE

Although no one would claim that the Alexander Technique
treatment is a cure-all in every case, there can be no doubt
that it often does have profound and beneficial effects, and I
repeat once more, both in the 'mental' and 'somatic' spheres".
Nicolaas Tinbergen,
Nobel Prizewinner for Medicine and Physiology

What: A Demonstration of the Alexander Technique
When: January 15th, 1-2:30pm.
Where: 330 West 38th Street, #805


***

Hi Everyone. These monthly demonstrations continue to be a fun (and cheap) way for me to introduce myself, offer a bit of hands-on work and discuss the benefits of this wonderful stress-reduction technique. At this demo, the question on the table will be "So, what does being present mean, exactly?" Whether on stage, or off, we recognize the charisma of poise, the empowered presence of someone living life without too much stress or hassle? That person who just doesn't seem to let the external stressors grip them or shake them up too much? Ideally still, some of you may have recognized such sweet moments for yourself. I hope so. And if so, rock on, keep doing what you're doing. The rest of you ...keep reading!

The Alexander Technique is a wake up call, a sensory re-education that teaches us how to let our muscular system work at the appropriate speed and volume. With instructive touch and verbal cues, the Alexander teacher gives the student some guidelines on how to reduce tension that is being unconsciously held throughout the body. Some muscles get stronger while others get softer, and the good ol' computer bank (um, your BRAIN) gets a reboot that leaves us feeling calm and empowered. This tactile wake up call to stress is unusual and highly effective. One leaves lessons feeling happier, rejuvenated and much less stressed out. When we let go of such muscular dis-ease, our sensory appreciation improves and we develop a greater ability to prevent that tension from creeping in again and "disturbing the works." Alive and relaxed, we move better, breathe easier and feel happier all around. That is a promise. The magic of being upright is not a luxury...it's your birthright. I hope you will join me at the demo.


The Benefits
• Release the fear that is unconsciously held in your body and limiting your life;
• Heal and prevent chronic joint and neurological problems caused by unnecessary stress and tension;
• Find better balance, coordination and a happier state of mind;
• Gain greater core strength, greater breath control and a heightened sense of the power that comes with being upright, without being uptight. Learn how to be less reactive and become more responsive and open to your environment;
• Develop and embrace a heightened sense of your own instincts and a greater ability to express them fully.


Until next time...hope you're all having a sweet sort of day. It's your day after all. So why not take just a sec and notice where you are in space? Are you pulling up? Falling down? Squeezing, holding and making yourself tense all around?


You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
You are the guy who'll decide where to go. ~
- Dr. Seuss


Happy days,
wendy
