You're welcome Rickey! Thanks for watching! ☺️

You're so welcome! Thanks for leaving this comment-I hope you enjoy the pillow as much as me! I literally took it with me on a 40+ hour road trip this summer AND a ferry ride to an island for a week-I never leave home without it! 😂

So glad to hear that! ☺️ And thanks for the feedback! I will be sure to make another video and omit the use of the word 'friend' in my narration for those who share your opinion. 👍🏻

You're welcome! I'm so happy to hear this was helpful to you! 🥰 Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻

Ahhh...the never-ending struggle with our devices is real friend!!! 😂 It's great to hear that at least you're becoming more aware of your posture while using your phone! 😊 It can definitely be a challenge with how much we rely on all these devices nowadays. Remember, small adjustments like expanding, elongating, and elevating your phone's position can make a big difference over time. Keep practicing-your body will continue to thank you for it! ✨

Awww-thank you so much for your kind words friend! 🥰 And for sharing your experience! I'm really glad to hear that the concepts from the Alexander Technique are already helping you with your chronic pain and unnecessary postural habits. 😊 It's always amazing how small adjustments can make such a big difference in our overall well-being. Your awareness and dedication to applying these ideas in your daily life are exciting to learn about and I wish you lots of luck (and curiousity and fun!) on your journey. It's never too late to start making positive changes, and I'm thrilled that you have found my videos helpful in your process. 🤗 Remember, progress is a journey, and each step you take brings you closer to a healthier and more comfortable way of living. ✨ Thank you again for your heartfelt message and for being a part of this community. 🙏🏻 If you have any questions or need further guidance, feel free to reach out. Take care, and keep up the great work! Warmly, Morgan ✨

Absolutely! 🙏🏻 It's great to hear about your positive experience with the Alexander Technique and how it's helped you navigate the challenges of teaching online. Your insight about ergonomic chairs and the importance of considering different body types is spot on. Many people overlook these factors and end up uncomfortable in standardized chairs designed for a limited range of body shapes. It's wonderful that you've found a solution that works for you-a simple, affordable chair along with mindful practices like standing during some lessons and using a footrest cushion. Your proactive approach to listening to your body and making adjustments is commendable. 😊 Keep up the good work, and continue prioritizing your comfort and well-being! ✨

That's a beautiful insight! ✨ Being present isn't just about internal awareness, but also extending that mindfulness to the world around you. Connecting with things outside of yourself can calm down your nervous system, ground you in the present moment, and-most obviously!-make you aware of what is happening around you. 😊 Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏻

Thank you, Benjamin! I appreciate your comment! 🥰

…and your fingertips, my friend, are lengthening. (Things Alexander teachers say😁)

Hi Robert! I'm so relieved to hear that the video resonated with you and that it could be of help, especially considering your rotator cuff injury! 🤗 It sounds like you're determined to get everything done in one go, but it's crucial to listen to your body and not overdo it, particularly when you're dealing with an injury. Your health and well-being should always take priority, even if it means making a few extra trips (which sometimes is the LAST thing we want to do! *haha* 😂) Thank you for your comment and for subscribing to my channel! 🙏🏻 I appreciate you! 😊 Take care of yourself, and I hope you feel better soon! ✨

Thanks Giora! I couldn't agree more! ☺

Hello Morgan...Great to hear from you...i hope i can inspire you kickstart this channel again. i got a good feeling about this.@@MorganRysdonCenterStudio 😀

Thank you so much for your encouraging words ​ @ajazhussain4064 ! 🙏🏻 Your enthusiasm means a lot to me, and I truly appreciate your support in kickstarting this channel again. With your positivity and belief in its potential, I'm feeling inspired-let's make this journey together! 😊 ✨

You're welcome Janelle! 😊 I'm glad you loved it. Pizza with a knife and fork sounds great! Thanks for sharing!

Hi there, thank you for sharing your friend's experience and your concerns. (And my sincere apologies for my late response, I didn't want to rush an answer and finally found time this evening to address your question.) It is understandable to feel worried if you believe someone may have misconceptions about a particular therapy or approach. And while the Alexander Technique (AT) can indeed offer benefits for physical and mental well-being, it's important to approach this work with realistic expectations as well. In the case you've described, it seems like your friend may have developed unrealistic expectations or misinterpretations of what the AT can provide. The AT is a valuable tool for improving body awareness, movement, and overall coordination, which can indirectly influence mental well-being. However, it is not a quick-fix solution that permanently resolves all issues. Additionally, it doesn't promote living life unconsciously, merely going through the motions. It is important for your friend to understand that personal growth and development are ongoing processes that require active engagement and effort beyond just attending their lessons. Encouraging your friend to discuss their expectations and experiences openly with their AT teacher would be greatly beneficial. Additionally, exploring other forms of support or therapy might offer a more comprehensive approach to addressing mental health struggles. (For instance, I combined therapy with my AT education and found this to be extremely productive when done together. This approach benefited me greatly not only in terms of mental health but also from the perspective of the Alexander Technique.) Ultimately, providing support and understanding to your friend as they navigate their journey of Self is essential. Encouraging them to seek clarification from their AT teacher and explore additional avenues of support can help them develop a more balanced and realistic perspective. I'm genuinely interested in learning more about your friend's journey, including their process, approach, and current understanding. In my experience, I've encountered numerous students who, despite studying with various teachers, struggled to comprehend the personal responsibility inherent in the "work" they needed to undertake independently. This is why I'm dedicated to promoting awareness about the self-work we each have the capacity to engage in autonomously. Taking ownership of this process can be incredibly fulfilling and transformative. 😊 Thanks for your question and for being here! 🙏🏻 I appreciate you! ✨

Thanks so much for your kind comment! I'm so happy to help you and others! 😊

Hey! Thanks for noticing my absence-it means a lot to me! Life's been a whirlwind lately, full of changes and reorganizing a few things. But your comment reminded me how much I miss being here. Hoping to be back soon with more content!

YES! Couldn't say it better! 😊

It sounds like you're reflecting on the impact of your communication style and reactions on your personal tensions. Recognizing how our words and reactions influence our experiences is an important step towards self-awareness and growth. Remember, self-reflection is a powerful tool for personal development, so keep up the good work! ☺️ Wishing you clarity and peace on your journey of Self! ✨

Absolutely! It's fascinating how often rushing through something can actually end up taking more time in the long run. Your insight about "haste makes waste" rings true here. It's a valuable lesson that teaches us the importance of patience and thoroughness. And you're spot on about the dynamic between teachers and learners - in the journey of life, we're constantly switching roles, always learning from each other. ☺️ Thanks for sharing your perspective! 🙏🏻

That's awesome to hear Steven! Taking that first step towards something new can be a game-changer. What inspired you to give it a try, and is there anything specific you're diving into? I'm here to cheer you on! 😊

I'm sorry to hear about your fall; that sounds like it must have been tough. It's great to hear that you're finding some relief in applying this work. As for me, I don't practice yoga as much these days, but I do stay active with regular exercise that includes running, lifting weights, and walking. In general exercise really helps me both physically and mentally. Do you have any specific yoga routines or exercises that you find particularly helpful for your ribs or overall strength?

@@MorganRysdonCenterStudio not really i swim and do somatics but i need weight bearing i think because of osteoporosis , that’s why i asking . what exercises running i feel unsafe and for some reason have fallen too many times and maybe fear , don’t know

@@cinmac3 It sounds like you've been navigating a unique set of challenges. It's great that you're incorporating swimming and somatics into your routine. Weight-bearing exercises can indeed be beneficial for osteoporosis. Have you considered activities like brisk walking or resistance training? They can provide the weight-bearing element while being gentler on the joints compared to running. And addressing any fears or concerns about falling is crucial. Maybe starting with supervised or assisted exercises that could help build confidence. I suggest if you're going to do any online videos (on TH-cam for example) that you first watch thru the entirety of the video so you will know what to expect and you can more easily follow along. Good luck and let me know how things go!

yes building confididence and feeling safe is primarily what the body needs. As far as weights are seemingly very important, I am weary with weights, i like hanging , i do feel safe, but , i have been causes of srains i have from all the pains and over use of my body's over use of muscles , we dont need as you nicely explained with the shoulder. Every morning i lye down and only raise my legs on a chi machine and let my legs vibrate on it, i do think it might be as" constructive rest", could you please tell me, what you can about that.

Do you know Bill Connington? i like that his video is short, and not say too much, but, he did not explain to a woman that asked about knees.

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear this! People often throw around remarks without considering the impact they can have. Remember, your worth isn't determined by a number on a scale. What matters most is how you feel about yourself and your well-being. If you're comfortable in your own skin and healthy, that's what truly counts. Sending you lots of positive energy! ✨
