I have acquired an awareness of where my body is in space

By means of the Alexander Technique, I have acquired an awareness of where my body is in space. I am now able to control my muscle tension by means of my brain; essential if I was ever to maintain a posture without straining my body. I have discovered a completeness of my mind and body: it can work as a whole entity instead of a jumble of separate limbs, head and torso all working independently of one another. This, of course, relieves a lot of unnecessary muscle tension and restores the completeness of the body in a relaxed and coordinated way that had been lost in my early childhood. Most of my aches and pains have dropped away, leaving me able to achieve a balance and poise not only of the body but of the mind as well
