Wish I knew this 20 yrs ago and I am the picture of health but my spine is not.

Can you use that for long hours? i should try that as i find immense pain in my shoulders, which i think is from bad seating.

In a slouched position, the chest caves in, but in good posture, the chest should feel like it's lifted up. Lifting your chest up naturally places the shoulders in a pulled back position without strain and levels the chin/head with the floor. This helped me simplify the whole process so I can practice it more often and hopefully make a permanent habit. Your 8 tips are great! I'm saving them to read every day to help me remember why I'm doing this. The best tip that I’ve found for aligning your body in correct posture is to lift your chest up.

Sit up straight. Your posture affects your thinking process. Wanna prove it to yourself? Try solving some math in your head while slouching, looking at the floor and letting your mouth hang open.

Posture is Health! I have a few more reasons to add the list: 1. Forward head posture creates tension on the spinal cord because of the way it is anchored to your spine. This tension stretches the blood vessels supplying oxygen to the spinal cord. The spinal cord gets less oxygen, its function decreases. The spinal cord is the path that all messages from brain to body travel upon. 2. Forward head posture creates tension on the musculature of the back of the neck. The stretching of certain receptors in here causes excessive signal firing into the nervous system. Garbage into the nervous influences garbage signals coming out of the nervous system. The brain and its signals are now interferred with. For more info search 'dysafferentation'. 3. Bones in your spine will remodel, changing its density, and sometimes adding spurs in response to stress. The idea is to have healthy posture to properly dissipate force. There is a plenty more researched reasons I could present but not without being brevity. I had amazing results in my health and life overall after I had my posture worked on as part of my thesis. I never knew how badly I was accelerating the degeneration of my spine. What I had done is the best and most researched postural correction today. I saw a Clinical Biomechanics of Posture (CBP) specialist Doctor of Chiropractic. To find one near you I suggest you check out www.idealspine.com . I hope this has been helpful. :) Im curring working on my PHD and as part of my dissertation Ive had to research posture. Posture is Health! I have a few more reasons to add the list:

Good posture does NOT equal tension. Au contraire, when you have a proper posture, your muscles aren't tense. I've learned and experienced this through yoga, and apply it every day for meditation, straight but relaxed. :) You can sit straight and have your muscles relaxed at the same time.
