Self-knowledge
You can't know a thing via an instrument that is faulty. That is the way most of us are. Our habits of tension and distortion feel right to us. Our sensory awareness is inaccurate, and does not offer us accurate feedback about what is actually going on. This also applies to feelings and emotions. We can not really "know ourselves", if the instrument we use for "knowing", our sensory register, is faulty. Good Alexander Lessons can promote a more accurate "self-knowledge".

"You are not here to do exercises or to learn to do something right, but to get able to meet a stimulus that always puts you wrong and to learn to deal with it."
