Riassunto

Today people often accept common ailments such as backache, headache, arthritis, depression and nervous tension as being "normal". We may readily believe the discomfort we suffer is a natural consequence of "wear and tear", and not realise that we can do something positive about it. In fact, many common ailments stem from stress and a range of muscular tensions caused by bad posture or poor body co-ordination - which can increase as we grow older. Rather than being a natural part of the ageing process, these tensions, if unchecked, can accelerate it and can develop into illness and even cause deformity. The Alexander Technique is a simple method of regaining the natural grace and balance of a child and of discovering easier and more efficient ways of movement. In this step-by-step guide, the author outlines the Alexander Technique, and, by means of a series of simple exercises and procedures, shows how the technique can help the reader to achieve a healthier and more balanced life.
