Review (5/5): learn about the power of full breathing
Jessica Wolf's Art of Breathing collected articles is a comprehensive, thoughtful collection of essays that offers the reader many insights into ways to enhance the breathing mechanism. The reader learns about the life work of two men who influenced Ms. Wolf's personal investigation into the breathing mechanism: FM Alexander and Carl Stough. Ms. Wolf testifies to the success of a teaching process that utilizes the Alexander Technique and Stough's Breathing Coordination to solve her own respiratory problems and has the potential to enhance quality of life and work for any of us. She generously offers creative lesson plans for working with acting students and case studies that demonstrate how improved breathing and postural coordination can alter patterns of chronic pain.
