Body Mapping

I think that the biggest gains that I have received from this Alexander class has been Body Mapping and how thought affects one's body. These can be the same thing I guess. I think of Body Mapping more as how I think and see in my minds eye, what my body is and how it works. How thinking affects thought is more about how focused, grounded, scattered, or happy I am and how that changes how my body feels.

I got so much out of this class that it is hard to name everything. Up to this post is all that has struck me as significant or important on my Alexander Technique journey. Now this blog morphs into a more general yet personal version of People's Health. Check out the About pages on each to get the lowdown.

The Key Muscles of Yoga: Scientific Keys

I found the website that goes along with that anatomy book we have in class, "The Key Muscles of Yoga: Scientific Keys, Volume I" by Ray Long and Chris Macivor.

Dig around in there, I found some great images and animations.
