Is the Alexander Technique just Sheep in Wolves Clothing?

[elfs]

Thesis: The Alexander Technique doesn't just teach posture as a corrective method. Above and beyond the basic good-for-you poses nicked from yoga, the Alexander Technique mostly teaches certain postures and behaviors that communicate assurance and status: stillness of the head, eye contact, and open charismatic gestures. This generates a sense of control over the outside world, especially when the outside world starts to react to the "new" you, that leads to a sense of well-being.
