I had a turn with David, and got a bit more aware of the subtle remainders of old pattern. During our group work we revisited some of Peter's ideas, with mixed enthusiasm. I spend nearly half, maybe even more of my waking hours without lenses, and get more and more used not to wear them at school. While Cal insists that we can't feel inside our brains, I notice the activation of a relatively distinct area inside my skull we I think about my thalamus, and directing my thalamus forward and up yields reliable results.
Luckily, we ended with some hands on after all the passiveness before. I get more confident in using directions and using the other body to get myself up. I took Bo's leg, but felt just little whether something happened with him. Probably our little conversation in the tea room before still stuck in my mind.

Eyeless in Fitzroy
The last three days went clearly in a blur.I got some pinhole glasses last week and started investigating my visual system a bit more. Peter Grunwald's book seemed very cvompelling to me, so I looked forward meeting the man himself to see for myself what he had to offer.
I wnet to school on sunday with my lenses in my jacket, and I didn't wear them at school since then. It takes me about 30 minutes to walk to school, plenty of time to experiment with my vision. I did not find a comparable case of my vision problem in his book, so I wanted to find out whether I belong to the contracted or overexpanded or mixed type.
Currently I have the impression that my right eye (my left visual cortex) contracts, while the other part overextends, however, I want to confirm this in my private lesson tomorrow. During the workshop guided me through specific parts of my visual pathway, the palpability of this communication between nervous systems stunned me.
Like with everything Alexander, repetition helps achieving an ever more subtle understanding. The workshop participant seemed more receptive than my fellow students, while I used the opportunity to enhance 'thinking' myself into the visual pathway. The thought of regaining my vision still exhilarates me, a bargain I never asked for.
