"The Alexander Technique is a method of self-help. Its purpose is to
help people to avoid doing things that are harmful to their general
wellbeing. The method is unique because, unlike most systems that
advise people what to do or how to do it, this teaches what not to do
and how to prevent it."
Walter Carrington (1915-2005)
