Guided Constructive Rest is a powerful practice for calming your mind, relieving stress, and releasing uncomfortable muscle tension. It involves quietly lying on the floor and listening to a recording for 15 minutes a day. As you can imagine, it's a very pleasant experience. It can relieve tension-related pain in the head, neck, back, shoulders, and jaw. Students often feel more peaceful and whole after the practice. One of my friends described it as “advanced kindergarten.”
I learned about constructive rest in my training to become an Alexander Technique teacher, and the practice that I learned was done without the guidance of a recording. I wanted to give my students a more structured way to practice between lessons, so I produced this 16-minute recording to guide them during their constructive rest.
My students told me how much the recording helped them, so I decided to make the recording available for students of other teachers, and for those who may not have access to individual lessons. To fully benefit from the Alexander Technique, studying with a teacher is recommended, but this recorded lesson is complete in itself.
It felt like the tension melted away... I felt taller and much freer across my back... My breathing became easier and I could think more clearly. I felt lighter, more energetic, and a lot more centered... It helped me quiet down the chatter in my mind.

Before, I wasn’t even aware of my tension until I started hurting. Now I can stop tensing before it starts hurting... I feel like I have more room to breath, a feeling of spaciousness.

After the Guided Constructive Rest, my headache was much less intense and my face had more color.

The Guided Constructive Rest recording was the beginning of the work that released me from 20 years of shoulder pain.

After 4 days of back pain from a pulled muscle, I remembered to use my Guided Constructive Rest. Afterwards, I was so happy with the way my back felt! Everything felt good! When I came out of the room, my friend said, “Wow, look at your posture!”... After the 12th session, the results were the most dramatic. I had been in a terrible mood before the session, and afterwards I felt calmer and happier. I’m seeing the benefit of regular practice.

In the past, I had trouble turning off my mind and falling asleep. By using the techniques that I learned, I now rarely have a problem getting to sleep.
I recently took an overnight bus trip,
and I was amazed that I could even sleep on the bus. Before, that would not
have been possible.

It’s like getting a second wind so that I can get a bit more done in the evening... After using the recording for 2 weeks, I seem to have a bit more patience and optimism.
