Introduction  page 3

Extract: "Hands up if you have tried to improve your posture using exercise? How long did you keep up with it? Did it really help? Or as soon as you got into your car or sat at your desk did your old habits creep back in? Exercises are boring! We all know it but we continue to look for the miracle exercise program that will solve our problems.

Now, hand up if your tried to improve how you look by trying to stand and sit up straight? How long could you maintain your ‘new, improved’ shape before you either forgot to do it or your muscles started to ache? It’s not easy is it? As soon as you become distracted you resort back to your habitual shape. This is because your posture is not about shape at all – it’s about you! So to improve your posture you need to go deeper than just re-organising your body parts – you need to re-assess your whole concept about your body and how it works.

Well here is the good news! You will not have to spend time on exercises with this guide – just a few minutes to try a few experiments that you can apply to your usual routines whether in the office, home or playing your sport.

1. Why Do We Develop Poor Posture?  page 6

To find a solution to your poor posture it helps to understand why we get out of shape. If we know why it has happened we can 'undo' or rollback the process and our body will naturally assume its proper posture.

This chapter will help you appreciate why the conventional way of corrective exercises or just trying to sit and stand up straight don't work!

2. Body Basics And Movement  page 8

"I had no idea just how badly I was using my own body!"

Over the last ten years of teaching The Alexander Technique I have found the majority of people do not know how to use their own body. It was the same for me. I had no idea I was moving so badly and using excessive effort that was pulling me out of shape.

This chapter looks at how your body can move and support itself with a fraction of the effort you think you need. It contains a number of 'body awareness' lessons that you can apply during you daily activities.

You will learn how to :-

• use gravity to gain height

• use your jaw muscles to improve your posture

• bend without straining your back

• walk tall without tension

• sit upright without effort

I guarantee that some of these will be a revelation as they were for me the first time!

3. Changing Postural Habits  page 27

"I didn't realize until I released the tension just how 'up tight' I had become."

The problem with habits, as I am sure you will be aware, is that they can be incredibly difficult to get rid of. This is the main issue with changing your posture.

If you use exercise for posture correction or just try harder you will still use the same 'movement' habits that got you into this situation in the first place!

This chapter will show you how to :-

• recognize poor postural habits

• prevent them using simple, practical techniques

• free up habitual tension in your body

• develop your 'body awareness'

This is a vital skill that can be applied to any habit.
