I have found this book very helpful. Good info on awareness, posture, movement technique, approach to life, pacing your energy, muscle pain, stress response etc. If you are ready to receive the information, it will change your life for the better and create new habits that will serve you well through aging.

Using the gentle recommendations in this easy to understand book
Everyone needs this book! It fills a gap where PT, OT, yoga and other modalities cannot reach. My husband and I have both benefited greatly from the techniques presented in this book. We're both medically trained and reasonably fit. Now that we're getting (even) older, certain aches and pains can't be handled with exercise alone. In fact, from this book we've realized that we're initiating a lot of our own pain. Using the gentle recommendations in this easy to understand book, I've improved my long-standing shoulder issues, and my husband can now drive without immediate back pain. I wish I had learned these techniques when I was much younger!

This is the best book by far that I have read on Alexander ...
Outstanding. This is the best book by far that I have read on Alexander Technique and the best by far for helping with pain management, living a calm and balanced day and feeling nicer in so many ways.Despite the 1 star reviewer saying it is no good without the CD - just go to the publisher's website, as directed in the book and you can download the lessons for free. They are amazing and read beautifully by Carolyn Nicholl's daughter - who has a fabulously calming and reassuring voice. It is like listening to after lunch stories as a child ! Both the recordings and this book are changing my life. Thank you to the author and her daughter. If you have any pain - buy this book. If you don't have pain but want to be serene and relaxed - buy this book.

An excellent book especially since there is a very good online recording you can download. This is one of the easiest books to read when it comes to The Alexander Technique - my only criticism is that there are a few typos. Well worth the money! All of you out there with rheumatic/back problems or who just need something calming in their lives, if you can't afford or locate an Alexander practitioner, this is the next best thing.

Clear and informative
One of the most useful books I've purchased for a while. Gives a good sense of what AT is really about & what can be achieved. Clear ideas on moving in a stress-free way in a number of situations, as well as providing supportive instructions via download.
