A series of podcasts about three important forces of nature, their effects on us, and how we can learn to make the best use of them. More podcasts about gravity and the Alexander Technique can be found here.
Gravity, Support and Freedom – and the Alexander Technique – 1
Robert Rickover, an Alexander Technique teacher in Lincoln, Nebraska and Toronto Canada, talks with Imogen Ragone about the history of gravity, and about what we know, and do not know about it, and how it compares with the other fundamental forces of nature.

Gravity, Support and Freedom – and the Alexander Technique – 3
Robert Rickover, an Alexander Technique teacher in Lincoln, Nebraska and Toronto Canada, talks with Imogen Ragone about the way we are supported by whatever surface we are on at the moment – and about the upward force exerted by the surface which operates on us with the exact strength of the gravitational pull, but in the opposite direction.

Gravity, Support and Freedom – and the Alexnder Technique – 6
Robert Rickover, an Alexander Technique teacher in Lincoln, Nebraska and Toronto Canada, talks with Imogen Ragone about some new developmens in using the external forces of nature to our benefit – specifically an “Everything Else” method of self-directing and a constructive use of “Alexander Technique Question Directions”. There is also a short discussion of Newton’s Third Law of motion. Robert’s website: AlexanderTechniqueNebraska.com Imogen teaches in Wilmington, Delaware.

Gravity, Support and Freedom – and the Alexander Technique – 7
Robert Rickover, an Alexander Technique teacher in Lincoln, Nebraska and Toronto Canada, talks with Imogen Ragone about atmospheric pressure, which is applied to the surface of our bodies, and which is a great deal stronger than most of us realize. That understanding has huge implications for our breathing. And it helps explain the power of the “Everything Else” method of self-directing.
