Turtle neck syndrome, insomnia and anxiety are no longer strange to us in modern times. To eliminate chronic pain and daily stresses, we first must address the chronic posture, lifestyle and state of mind problems that destroy the balance between our body and mind. The Alexander Technique pursues the integration of body and mind by helping people recognize and correct their habits of poor posture and holding excessive tension in their muscles (Tonic Muscular Activity) that hinder comfortable movement. Participants learn about their own anatomy through the instructor’s teaching, and experience a relaxed state. The lesson involves observing and recognizing their own body using a sophisticated sense. They practice focusing on the present while recognizing and correcting the unnatural movements that originate from bad habits. The Alexander Technique guides individuals to reach a natural body and free mind from usual movements while staying awake, including breathing, walking, standing, and sitting. One tries to suppress habitual reactions, and stops for a moment when the habitual reaction occurs. In this way, he can recover naturalness and peace of mind. The Center aims to help people internalize this strength, so they can recover the balance between body and mind on their own.
