The Ready List Book
Coming Soon
A brand new book by Sue Merry for the general reader, is on its way. This book is a simple, practical guide to relaxing into and enjoying the experience of being human.
In this book you will discover ways to peacefully accept yourself just as you are, with all your quirks and your health issues etc. You will learn two, very easy and useful techniques, that will help you to turn off your body’s threat response when you experience discomfort. This will potentially enable you to face any life situation with the appropriate levels of activation and peacefulness. The book also includes information about children and emotional intelligence, making it of interest to parents, primary carers, educators and Alexander teachers.
