In the beginning, changing our
habits without guidance is difficult, for our sensations give us feedback that
is more or less reliable, and what we think we are doing (or not doing) does
not always correspond to what we are really doing. That is why this new way of
redirecting mind and body needs to be acquired in the course of individual
lessons.
In a lesson, our
field of exploration is that of everyday activities such as walking, sitting,
standing, speaking, etc. By encouraging you to approach these activities as if
for the first time, my role, through words and touch, is to teach you to identify
your habits and explore other possibilities. This skill which you will
gradually make your own applies in the same way to the more complex activities which
we can then also explore together (playing a musical instrument, singing,
reading or presenting material out loud, writing at the computer or by hand,
drawing, refining yoga or meditative postures, etc.).
A series of 10 lessons
will enable us to review how you apply the principles in your personal and/or professional life. The
Alexander work being educational, one usually recommends thirty or so lessons
to acquire a basic autonomy.
