Having trouble maintaining good posture?

Do you flipflop between slumping and holding yourself up straight?

You pull yourself up for a minute or two...and then slouch again?

You might have even tried core strengthening exercises and you still catch yourself in this flip flop between slouching and sitting bolt upright....

So what's the problem?

1. If you have to "hold" the position, you're not really improving your posture. You're just trading a collapsed position for a tense one. Neither is good.

2. You might be trying really hard, but not really making the right adjustment.
Do hold your chest up and pull your shoulders back? This is what most people do and it doesn't get to the root of the problem.

If you keep trying the "wrong" thing to try and fix your posture, it might seems exhausting and impossible to maintain. Or you might wonder how "good posture" can be heathly if it feels stiff. (It shouldn't feel stiff.)

In my lessons and classes, you'll learn simple, effective adjustments that you can make throughout the day. You'll feel more relaxed, energized, and like you're putting your best foot forward.

Speaking of feet, here's a quick suggestion that you can put into practice right now...Did you know that your feet are part of what support your back, neck, and head when you're sitting? Make sure your feet can fully touch the floor at your desk and if not, adjust your set-up and use a foot rest if necessary.

Just to sum up here...If you find that it's hard to maintain good posture, it doesn't mean that you can't do it. You just need a different approach.
