Virginia Woolf and the Standing Desk

6/2/2016

0 Comments

 
It is said that Virginia Woolf wrote while standing at a desk 3'6" tall because she wanted to be like a painter who could instantly step away from her canvas to get a better view... 
​

She was onto something.  Coming up and out of the mental thicket for air, with wide eyes and ears to inhale space and sound, refreshing the senses to allow the emergence of the grander picture...

Beautiful and relatable. Protagonist for the standing desk.

WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING
​

"Flora is an expert on posture and movement. She quickly identified where my posture was creating tightness and imbalance in my movements. She is patient but committed to helping teach her students and is an absolute pleasure to work with."

- Cheryl K.

"Flora's lasting gift was that she gave me an internal feel for what proper alignment feels like and it feels really good.  [...] When I walk aligned there is a mindfulness that I feel that makes me more relaxed and balanced so even in chaotic crowds I feel a kind of peace.  It is a wonderful feeling and she taught me how to cultivate that.  Also Flora meets you where you are - whatever it is you want to work on - she can help you and structures the lessons accordingly."

- Patsy W.

"Going to Flora felt like I was in the hands of a master. Whereas so many before had failed me (numerous chiropractors and body workers), I could tell that Flora would be able to help me. The chronic pain I've experienced intermittently since I was 13 is gone, something no chiropractor I saw could achieve. But the Alexander Technique is more than just relief from pain, it teaches the joy of being in and using the body."

- Louis B.

"Flora is fantastic!  She has amazing energy and focus and is helping me learn how to find spaciousness in my spine.  I've been looking for this kind of help with my posture for years and am so happy to have found her.  She has my highest recommendation!" 

- Valerie F.
