Alexander Technique, Gender, and Embodied Empowerment
In this episode, ASO revisits the theme of psychological and non-physical outcomes in Alexander Technique work, as explored in Kinsey and Glover’s realist review (see Episode 19). Erica Donnison interviews AT teacher Abi Wright, founder of She Stands, a AT based project focused on empowering girls and women to feel at home in their bodies and confident in taking up space.
Putting the body back into prayer
This month we explore the spiritual dimension of the Alexander Technique (AT) through an insightful interview with Dr. Jennifer Fox Eades, an AT teacher, ordained priest, and third-order Franciscan. In the discussion, Jennifer talks about elements of Franciscan thinking and practice and how these relate to her AT practice as explored in her new book, Embodying Prayer: Exploring Franciscan Spirituality with the Alexander Technique.
