The Eyebody Method

The Eyebody Method is based on principles which integrate and coordinate brain, eyes, and the body.

Neuroscience tells us about the plasticity of the brain. When the brain changes, the eyes and the body follow.

Out of consciousness we can learn to use our vision in a natural and easy way, while including the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of our being in the world.

The principles were developed by Peter Grunwald, out of his personal experience of improving his own myopia (short-sightedness) and astigmatism naturally.

This is not a treatment. Rather, it is about empowering you by teaching you the principles which you can apply for yourself.

Eyebody can also help with anxiousness, stress, brain fog, and low mood.

What is the Alexander Technique?

The Alexander Technique (AT) came into being at the beginning of the last century, when F.M. Alexander developed a set of principles which helped him to overcome physical difficulties which he encountered as an actor.

AT looks at how we use and move our body, and how this is connected to our mind.  We can learn to let go of old habits and consciously cultivate a new and natural way of moving and being. It is a grounded, hands-on approach which helps many people worldwide to improve their posture and the way they go about their daily activities, such as extended periods computing, sports, or playing musical instruments.

Learning the AT and applying it in your daily life can help with back and neck pain, poor posture, repetitive strain injury, stress and tension.
