"I often ask myself if efficient
breathing begins with dynamic alignment, or if balance and coordination rely on
efficient breathing? Wherever you
begin, developing a kinesthetic awareness of the breath is vital for life."

THE ALEXANDER
THE ART OF TECHNIQUE
BREATHING
|
The Alexander Technique is
a psycho-physical technique for self-care.
It is mind-body re-education. It's re-learning the most
efficient, effortless way to move, to breathe, and to be in one's
body. It's a renowned
method for alleviating stress and pain caused by daily and
profession-related misuse of the body, and for improving creativity
and artistic performance.
Unique among the body-mind techniques, the Alexander
Technique is the only one that truly makes changes that will last a
lifetime. |

Breathing is as
fundamental as the beating of our hearts.
But breathing, unlike the involuntary heartbeat, is something
we can influence. The
goal of The Art of Breathing is to improve health and well-being by
using the principles of Breathing Coordination and the Alexander
Technique. The Art of
Breathing is aimed to re-educate one's respiratory system for
maximum efficiency with minimum effort.
Breathing is a process which occurs of itself, but
effective breathing
requires individual attention.
