Welcome to lecture six. In this lecture, we will talk about n gaining Alexander's term and gaining. So what is n gaining? Well, it's just doing something without paying attention to how you're doing it. So a picture might be helpful. So we could say that this little girl is engaging, she's paying more attention to what she's doing, then how she's doing it.

I could show you another example, which is the same person is paying more attention to what they're doing, then how they're doing it. So, Alexander said, if you're engaging, you're misusing yourself and if you misuse yourself, you will have pain. Now the pain might not show up immediately, but over a long period of time, pain will start to manifest in the body so That's Alexander's term called ng gaining. And he says, when you stop engaging, you'll start misusing yourself. When you start misusing yourself, you'll have less or no pain.
