Conscious Control
This was originally published in Direction magazine.

Learning to apply the Technique
I wrote this during my last year of training to be a teacher. Most of it still makes sense to me more than a decade later.

What is inhibition?
An investigation into what we are saying 'no' to when we inhibit, and why an increased knowledge of this might be useful.

Exercise and activity
This was a contribution I made to the AlexTech Internet forum whose members were debating the merits or otherwise of exercise in relation to the Technique.

Ring
This 'lesson' highlighted for me one of the downsides of advertising.

Work on the self
This was written as a contribution for a projected issue of Direction magazine on the same subject.

Touch
This was a my contribution to a debate on the AlexTech forum questioning the validity of an approach known as Therapeutic Touch.

In the zone
I wrote this after reading a newspaper report proclaiming how rarely even highly accomplished sportsmen and women experienced the sublimity of life "in the zone".
