The following are audio recordings of Guided Constructive Rest talks that were given live at the sixth annual ATTGP Online Alexander Technique Summit in January 2026.
Constructive Rest is a way of lying down in a semi-supine position that promotes good spinal alignment and release of excess tension. It is also known as “Active Rest,” “Semi-Supine” or simply an “Alexander Lie Down.” It provides a simple yet powerful way to find balance, ease, and alertness in challenging times, offering a time of rest, thoughtful awareness, and insights into your body’s amazing design.
It is recommended that you wear loose comfortable clothing and have a place where you can comfortably lie down on the floor and a few books you can place under your head while lying down.
