!We sit all the time, I mean all the time

?But how aware are you of your posture while you’re sitting

Many people cross their legs, slouch forward, lean to one side, round their backs and push their heads forward (shown in the last photo

 ❌Unfortunately, these sitting habits can have negative long term effects on our bodies

head upright and above your trunk (think of keeping your ear vertically above the top of your shoulder or the acromium process)

 Shoulders pushed back and down -

 Long straight spine -

 Both feet flat on the floor -

 Computer screen should be at eye level (add some books under your computer to raise it if you need to Thighs parallel to the floor

 Weight evenly distributed between both hips -

Next time you’re at a desk or driving, I challenge you to focus in on how you are sitting and how your body feels. Your body will thank you in the long run 

Last healthy workday tip: keep your body from getting tired during the day by taking mini walk breaks, even if it is just to fill up your water bottle, use the restroom or go stay hello to a coworker, because the body was not made to sit all day, it was made for movement

Thanks for your support and stay active
