I liked the analogy my Alexander Technique teacher used this past week. She mentioned the ocean & how incorporating this technique into your activities (of daily living) can come in waves, like the ocean.

I was such a ball of pandemic worry, this technique has helped me with the that (At first I did sessions on Zoom). Although some days flow like waves easier than others.

This technique helps me to understand how I am wasting energy with ingrained misplaced postural habits. It has gotten me to a reckoning of the full blown extent of how out of shape I became, from expending so much of my energy unproductively. This has motivated change, but it comes in waves. I have been feeling calmer the more I’ve practiced this technique.
