Thanks Barbel,

I’m glad you enjoy the Tips Unfortunately I’m not producing any new tips. These tips just really touch the surface and I always encourage people to take some Alexander Technique lessons if you want get the full benefit of the work.

I wanted to thank you for the many tips both written and in video form which have helped me to get rid of my neck and shoulder tension (first benefit that came quitting quickly). Also of my walking and bending when conscious of them. I have built into my day the 15 minute active rest which also helps relieve my arthritic back ( I’m 84).
I like your matter of fact and clear explanations. Your weekly reminders are very useful for continuing improvements.
What I would like to hear from you are little tips in daily life to remind me of walking or standing following AT precepts, but I guess that we can devise those ourselves to best fit into our lives, eg: when heating my mûsli in the microwave, I stand against the fridge thinking of my shoulders stretching sideways and keeping mi neck soft. Or putting something on the floor at home on a patch I walk frequently to remind me to stretch my spine upwards in opposition to my head which points softly forwards.
Thank you.
