"Even with the immense self-awareness and embodied knowledge that we, as body workers, practitioners and trainers, bring to our practice, it is easy to misuse our bodies or injure ourselves while we are helping other people. Unconsciously, we can carry our own personal tension into our work which then affects our clients. The Alexander Technique brings awareness of how one uses one's own body in the work environment. This self knowledge, and applying principles of the Alexander Technique can be a profound means of preventing injury as well as tapping into the deep messages that we send our own systems via touch." - Shelley
