I read this book many years ago after meeting Vivien. I really enjoyed the book at the time, but what I most remembered was wondering what the Alexander Technique was. It was what most intrigued me. That question followed me for years until I began taking Alexander Lessons from Vivien. I was “hooked” from my first lesson. Eventually, I trained at Alexander Technique of Cincinnati. Vivien and Neil are wonderful teachers. Recently, over the last several months this book has been on my mind. When heard that it had been released as an ebook, I immediately downloaded it to my Kindle and my Kindle App. This time I enjoyed the book even more. All that Vivien writes happened, happened. Thank you Vivien for telling your story. It has helped me realize the everyday magic happening in my own life. I highly recommend this book.
