About this book
Morning habits provide the starting point for Samuel Silas Curry's 1915 handbook on exercise, voice and daily well-being. Drawing on his experience as a teacher of expression, Curry connects physical training with thought and feeling. He recalls early lessons with voice teachers in Paris and Italy, then argues for beginning the day with deliberate movement. Poetry also enters his discussion: Browning's Pippa supplies an example of how a cheerful outlook can affect other people.
The practical sections describe breathing, chest movement, stretches for the back and sides, and coordination while standing. Chapters on everyday actions, work, play and sleep place these exercises within a larger routine. Readers interested in the history of physical education will find a personal account of training that joins bodily practice to emotional discipline. The title's promise reflects Curry's own convictions about health and long life.
