It allows me to rest my mind, leaves mental space, and therefore helps with decision making and contemplation, and it improves my energy levels. It's the best method that I have met in my life.

The Alexander Technique is profoundly calming.

In a stressful situation the Alexander technique helps to organise our perception of the choices available. Learning to apply the Technique in this way builds quiet confidence and emotional intelligence.

The Alexander Technique has been found invaluable - often in conjunction with medical or psychotherapeutic treatment - in dealing with:

• long term illness or disability
• serious disease or injury
• post-traumatic problems
• panic attacks
• chronic pain

The Alexander Technique makes a real difference to my often tense and busy life. Its thoughtful approach has made me calmer, improved my concentration, and given me a clearer sense of my own well being. I am grateful for it.

From early childhood onward we make many decisions about how to be and how to live. These decisions shape the habits of our bodies as well as our minds. The Alexander Technique's in-depth approach helps us move out of unwanted habits and back into choice.
