The conditions of modern life, often sedentary for large proportions of the day, have caused us to lose the natural good use of the body.
As a result poor posture can lead to debilitating problems, ranging from bad backs, stiff necks, headaches and irritability to lethargy and even depression.
This fully-illustrated guide to the theory and practice of the Alexander Technique shows how modified posture and breathing patterns can bring relief from pain and stress. The book begins with an explanation of the technique and how, by realigning the head, the neck and the back, we can enjoy stress-free movement.
This is followed by descriptions of appropriate postures for basic physical actions - walking, standing, sitting, bending, lifting, carrying and squatting.
Everyday activities are illustrated, showing improved ways of performing these tasks.
With 150 photographs this book is a concise guide to improved posture.
