“For in the mind of man lies the secret of his ability to resist, to conquer and finally to govern the circumstances of his life, and only by the discovery of that secret will he ever be able to realise completely the perfect condition of mens sana in corpore sano.”  FM Alexander

Alexander Technique Europe:

This quote is found at the end of the first chapter of FM’s first book written in 1910.  Mans Supreme Inheritance.

By studying the work of FM Alexander you can learn how to govern the circumstances of your life and reach your dreams.  FM clearly states the premise of his work which is that the secret lies in your mind.  As our teachers book title so aptly says: “What you think is what you get” D Weed.

FM believed that the perfect condition was of mens sana in corpore sano … a healthy mind and a healthy body, and as we will discover Alexander is constantly talking of the importance of the mind, how we think and how we direct our thinking.
