The Alexander Technique AT is a remarkably simple but
powerful method for learning to skillfully control how your brain
and body interact, allowing you to better coordinate your movements
while increasing the accuracy of your minds thoughts and
perceptions. Now, in How You Stand, How You Move, How You Live,
leading Alexander Technique master teacher Missy Vineyard sheds a
completely fresh light on this revolutionary method and, in the
process, offers path-breaking insight into the mind-body
connection. Vineyard thoroughly explains and teaches the central
skills of the AT through simple self-experiments, and she offers
engaging stories of students in their lessons to show its effective
application across a range of disciplines, including the performing
arts, athletics, health, psychology, and education. How You Stand,
How You Move, How You Live introduces us to a world within
ourselves that we know surprisingly little about--and thereby helps
us to understand why we often cannot do what we should be able to
do, why we harm ourselves with chronic tension and anxiety, and why
our thoughts often seem beyond our control. Vineyard is also the
first AT teacher to draw on cutting-edge research in neuroscience
and to synthesize those findings with AT theories and techniques.
She fully illuminates the benefits to be reaped by mastery of the
Alexander Technique, which include: * Release from acute or chronic
physical pain * Enhanced mental attention and focus * Reduced
anxiety * Improved balance and coordination * Relief from tension
and stress * Increased ease and efficiency performing precise
movement skills
