💗🍥GOOD POSTURE💗🍥

💗As I mentioned in my last post , a good posture will make you look more confident , graceful and elegant.

🍥If your posture is poor, your muscles need to work harder to keep your upright. Some muscles will become tight and inflexible. Others will become inhibited. Poor posture can make your lungs less efficient, cause back pain and tension headaches. It can also influence your emotional state.

💗If you are sitting , your neck should be vertical , and shoulders should be relaxed. Your knees should be relaxed. However If your posture isn't great , REDESIGN your environment.

🍥If you have a good posture , you will feel and appear confident , be more energetic , boost your productivity, improved blood circulation and digestion and reduce back pain.

💗Dear peachie made a video on good posture, she said that you are not ugly , you just have a bad posture. I will summarize that video in this post .

🍥Good posture is not only beneficial for physical health but for your appearance and self - confidence too. It shows the world how you feel about yourself. It can enhance attractiveness and the aura we exude. Aura is the quality which makes you stand out in the crowd.

💗TYPES OF POOR POSTURE

(A) Foward head Posture

The head appeared to be positioned in front of the body. Working for a long time infront of the computer , having a bad posture while sitting or standing or reading a book with your head down for a long period of time. All of these can form forward head posture. This can easily cause your trapezium muscles to become larger , thickening your upper back and cause a hump on back of your neck . It can cause neck and shoulder pain too .

To know if you have forward head posture , take help from family and friends or take a picture of yourself when you are doing your usual activities. Observe the position of your ears , shoulders and waist. If these three points are not positioned in the straight line , chances are high that you are leaning forward.

(B ) Hunchback

It is caused by weak muscles in back which occur due to slouching , hunching while sitting infront of TV or carrying a heavy backpack. To know If you have a hunchback:

Stand against the wall

Look at the distance between the most concave space behind the neck and the wall

Less than 3- 5 cm is relatively mild.

If you can do this effortlessly , it means that hunchback issue is just a matter of poor habit.

Tilt your head up in order to keep it against the wall.

Spine alignment issue.

Seek professional medical advice.

( C) Rounded shoulders

Resting shoulder position that has moved forward from the body's ideal alignment . Any activity which causes to look down can cause slumped shoulders. To know you have rounded shoulders

Stand in a regular posture and let your arms hang by your side.

Thumbs are pointed in toward your body and your palms are facing backwards .

The correct position is that the thumb should be pointed forward with the palms facing to the sides of the body.

(D) PELVIC TILT

Direction that the pelvis is tilted towards in relation to the body. The common pelvic tilt is faced by the majority is anterior or posterior pelvic tilted.

To know that you have anterior pelvic tilt.

Pelvic is titled forward

Frequently seen in people who sit for prolonged periods of time or are inactive.

To know that you have posterior pelvic tilt .

Pelvic is tilted backward.

Caused by poor hip and back strength.

🍥CORRECT YOUR POSTURE

(A) Shoulder and neck area

You need to be extra mindful to correct your posture and slowly replace the poor postures with the good ones!

Keep your shoulders open. Anterior region of our elbow should position to point forward.

Elbow joint is rested at side of your waist

Anterior region of your elbow is positioned to face forward.

Ensure both legs are straightened.

The front leg is extended, while the hind leg is pinned firmly to the ground.

Raise your leg and repeat the same steps again.

To walk stairs elegantly

Keep your upper body upright .

Step on the next staircase by focusing the weight on your toes.

After the front foot is stepped on the staircase and completely straighten out , take the next step.

To walk down stairs elegantly

Don't lower your head , instead lower your eyes to check on the placement of eyes.

having good posture

let's talk about the underrated but oh-so-important topic of posture. good posture isn't just about looking taller and more confident—it's also crucial for your overall health and well-being. here are some benefits of improving your posture:

reduced back and neck pain: slouching puts extra strain on your muscles and joints, leading to discomfort and pain in your back, neck, and shoulders. by improving your posture, you can alleviate tension and reduce the risk of chronic pain.

improved breathing and circulation: good posture allows your lungs to fully expand and your diaphragm to function properly, leading to better oxygen flow and circulation throughout your body. this can boost energy levels, improve concentration, and enhance overall vitality.

increased confidence and self-esteem: standing tall with good posture not only makes you look more confident—it also makes you feel more confident. when you carry yourself with poise and presence, you exude an air of self-assurance that can positively impact your interactions and relationships.

enhanced digestion and metabolism: slouching can compress your organs and disrupt digestive function, leading to issues like indigestion and bloating. maintaining good posture encourages proper alignment of your internal organs, facilitating optimal digestion and metabolism.

be mindful of your posture throughout the day, whether you're sitting at your desk, standing in line, or walking down the street.

If you hold your back in "good posture" all day it just gives you more back pain, just like if you clench your jaw. You are not SUPPOSED to be upright all the time, you are supposed to use the full range of motion of your muscles and not hold them in one position all day.

So slouch, crouch, sit on the floor, stim, just make sure you change it up and move. It's better for your body in the long run.

Listen to your body.

Top 5 Ergonomic Tips for a Healthier Workspace

Creating a healthy workspace is essential for maintaining productivity and well-being. Poor ergonomics can lead to discomfort, fatigue, and even long-term health issues. Here are our top five ergonomic tips to help you create a healthier and more comfortable workspace.

1. Invest in an Ergonomic Chair

An ergonomic chair provides proper support for your back, neck, and shoulders, reducing the risk of strain and injury.

Tips: Choose a chair with adjustable height and lumbar support. Ensure your feet rest flat on the floor or on a footrest.

2. Adjust Your Monitor Height

Proper monitor positioning can prevent neck and eye strain. The top of your screen should be at or just below eye level.

Tips: Use a monitor stand or adjustable arm to achieve the correct height. Position the monitor about an arm's length away from your eyes.

3. Use an Ergonomic Keyboard and Mouse

An ergonomic keyboard and mouse can help reduce strain on your wrists and hands, preventing repetitive strain injuries (RSI).

Tips: Keep your wrists in a neutral position while typing. Use a mouse that fits comfortably in your hand and allows for natural movement.

4. Maintain Good Posture

Good posture is crucial for avoiding back and neck pain. Sit with your back straight, shoulders relaxed, and elbows at a 90-degree angle.

Tips: Adjust your chair and desk to support a natural, upright posture. Take regular breaks to stand, stretch, and move around.

5. Incorporate Movement and Breaks

Regular movement and breaks are essential for maintaining health and preventing stiffness and fatigue.

Tips: Follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Set reminders to stand up, stretch, and walk around every hour.

By incorporating these ergonomic tips into your workspace, you can create a healthier, more comfortable environment that boosts productivity and well-being. For personalized office setup solutions, contact Apex Offices LLC today!
