hello Geeta I'm Diana would like to introduce some Alexander principals to you so would you show me how you would just sit down and stand up just in your way all right and then standing out mm-hmm and are you at the computer quite a lot yes eight hours a day okay and you're studying law okay then so you and it's full-on for you not much reflection on perhaps how you're sitting at the computer just getting in and doing it perhaps and getting what you have to do done all right just stand in front of the chair again where the Alexander reeducation or pointers or the Alexander Technique as a lesson is referred to it can help you pay attention to you during the act of whatever it is you're doing sitting at a computer going for a swim riding your bike you are conscious of a particular area that brings into balance the whole organism and it really is the head neck back relationship so that's sort of simplify is that if you like and the little guiding orders are let the neck be free to have unnecessary tension that's understood to let the head balanced up on the neck the next not leaning forward so that the spine can lengthen during the act of whatever that you are doing and the shoulders can soften and widen out softening widening out across the whole torso widens now I'd like you to just sit down again as you did and then if you stand up again so in light of what I just was talking about then the head neck back relationship was very much jeopardized mm-hmm our head weighs about 4.5 kilos that's a lot sitting on a little neck and we would rather it not go back and down when you sit down because it just puts the spiral and the compression I should say rather than the spiral all the way down your back it also for women interferes with our pelvic balance and not least of all the feet our feet ago are not going to be grounded if the head is kept throwing back and disturbing the perfect balance now I'm going to guide you into the chair this way with those principles so you can think about them during the act of actually using them if you like so you'll be doing the thinking and I'll be doing the moving of you just in the general act of sitting down we do it all day long sitting down standing up we don't pay attention to this now stand with a little your feet a little bit wider about her apart just to give you some grounding about hip width a little bit wider not much that's fine so now we think I'm going to sit down all you have to say to yourself is wait a minute not my old habit allow the neck to be free the head to balance up which it is and Alexander clarified that a little he said allow the neck to be free they had to balance forward and up during movements and you just bend your knees quite quickly and then we wait for a moment and then we just gently come back just sitting quietly yep that's it so that during that act we're going to not put compression on this back so that you have you allow what those last words those are the last guidelines say allow neck to be free the head to balance up the spine to have ass length the torso to widen which is certainly what it's doing now and then you've got a lovely breath by a lovely breath I mean what Alexander called full capacity breathing we're a natural breathing it's where the lungs are getting air down to the bases of the lungs it's not just upper respiratory panic attack type nervous situations we can always come back to the inhibition and Alexander lessons learning to stop the automatic response to a stimulus and we have the guidelines lovely little guidelines allow an egg to be free the head to bounce up which it is your torso is lengthening softening and widening all that is taking place so why should that be disturb simply because she bounced out of a chair we just do it unconsciously up goes the chin crunch goes the head and we stand up all day long terrible terror compression unconsciously with this work you're not doing that so this becomes so strong and very flexible and you become free of a lot of harmful habits for me to help you or to help you get that experience well we'll just stand up to allow now - before we stand up put an idea to bring the feet underneath you just a little bit more and then we just wait come quiet not getting ready to push because I don't want the attention to the legs that's your stand it's already in the brain mechanisms that you're about to stand we don't have to do any more than that it's it's there mm-hmm what we do have to do is prevent they hit the habit allow neck to be free to balance for beautiful and then I know watch the chin and that's going to work a little bit of arms coming forward but that's alright we gently let the head float up again yes end up strengthening lengthen to soften and widen and widen beautiful just quiet yes nice see that you're not trying to breathe there it's just happening quite naturally and quite deeply it's very nice to sit down it's not about sitting and standing really it's about looking after this neck is free hit balancing up let me move you you can just send the knees just that way free neck head bouncing up what two seconds that was sort of going down I want you to think like a kite your heads follow my third Riddler's little guiding direction in my hands so I want you to like a kite to think up and your your spine is going to be the the tail of the kite floating up and not sticking them the bottom doesn't have to stick out it's the knees that float as they just bend but Nick free hit forward and then we just bend your knees quite quickly that's it and then to stand we go no quiet Nick free stay back in your back end up to go up and then we wait soft legs even we just flash on all the areas and I like to be free it burns up letting the torso lengthen soften and widen that's it and why so you can allow your neck to be free during the movement I want you to come into that hinge that's lovely and bend the knees quite quickly well done that was easier wasn't yes and then you stopped so it's not about I'm not interested in the movement per se I'm interested in where your thinking is letting the neck be free I know the movement will be very much in balance if the thinking is there that links that that links that it's just lovely to get up no not my old way yes beautiful it's it it gives a flow to the whole being after you go and its effort less you really didn't need much there at all and to think I've not seen you before in all this new experience it's very good because it's it's going into the unknown when we come along for now exam lesson you know we're going away from our habit and all of a sudden we're focusing on this instrument it's very important so when you're cycling when you're cooking which is what you also enjoy I believe very important that you be very creative in in how you're using your head neck and your back and hopefully Alexander this tiny little introduction will give you the the sort of the the real conscious awareness that yes you can stop and say wait a minute that preparatory work of looking after you just into free neck just free shoulders for me hold the bicycle wheels we don't have to clench just just in readiness just enough neck free shoulders free arms free hands just enough and then when we do need to pull weeds out of a garden or what have you you've got all the strength in the world because you've got a strong back as a result of letting neck be free your head down sup it's not a weak back because you not compressing it when you move to sit down we go ways no I'd like to throw up and just let the knees float beautiful free neck and even if we were to experiment very interestingly with this atlanto-occipital joint to look down at computers but tick and that's another thing that you're doing all the time which can tend to drag the neck forward to look down as in like that whereas you've got this hinge this LAN toxic little joint right between the ears if you put your index finger just below the earlobe there's a little Hollow in there if you were to ball right through not a particularly nice I thought but you'd you'd meet the top vertebra of the neck and the head there's little condyles that the head floats on that and that's where you can rock from to look all the way down to your keyboard enter type and to look at your mobile phone as well if you just let that go and yes so that's very viable to you a very viable joint without any compression on your sternum and pulling your arms down you know so it's allowing this lovely open chest free neck and then you can key when you are at your computer I would like to recommend that either use the back entirely I mean where you're resting up and against it but if you're not using it entirely please come away from it more than you are that you're more to the front of the chair the reason being you still got you know you've got still got plenty of balance on that chair but it allows you to be there and allows your back to widen more efficiently than when if you were back further you'd be leaning in and it's that leaning in that allows the slump whereas here you're quite solid and you've got that solid base which is really important this sacral area and particularly for women with our gynecological organs this area must be must not be yanked in just yank that in for me very tight and it's restricting the pelvis so we we want to have the pelvis beautifully balanced what balances the pelvis is not going directly to the pelvis but going towards on top and it's the head neck back relationship which sits on top of the spine and when there's a lovely flow there the pelvis will swing into balance and it'll be beautiful you can bring your feet back maybe a wee bit or wherever they but that's that's it can be quite comfortable like that lying neck to be free shoulders to be free just let me take this out so no no don't give it quite then we do both stop to just think up free neck right now looking around it's always very free hinge and when you go to move think wait a moment let the neck be free feet underneath you a little bit more then you just wait and then stay in your back so you've got that lovely connection with your back and then you just blow over and you throw up and you continue that little thought all the way up but you grounded on your feet there to very slightly on another earth because this head neck is beautiful NIC and free under here so you're not including your voice box your larynx at all you've got that lovely and free beautiful natural balance and you can be flying along the beach or wherever in the law courts like that hello Geeta I'm Diana would like to introduce some Alexander principals to you so would you show me how you would just sit down and stand up just in your way all right and then standing up mm-hmm and are you at the computer quite a lot yes eight hours a day okay and you're studying law okay then so you and it's

is beautiful Nick and free under here so you're not including your voice box your larynx at all you've got that lovely and free beautiful natural balance and you can be flying along the beach or wherever in the law courts like that
