Correct posture not only makes you look taller and thinner, but also it allows your body to perform the way it was meant to. What’s more, good posture aids dramatically in facilitating free and effective breathing.
The main enemy of good posture however is tight muscles! Stretching can help you correct muscular imbalances that lead to incorrect skeletal alignment. One cause of this kind of imbalance is using one side of your body more than the other. Times that you may do this include
* Carrying your toddler on the same side of your body
* Carrying your briefcase in the same hand everyday
* Wearing your shoulder bag on the same shoulder
* Sleeping on the same side
* Using the same shoulder to cradle the phone while you’re talking
* Using the same arm to put around your sweetie on a date
Such chronic imbalances can rob you of energy and efficiency in movement, or even result in back pain. So switch it up, and stretch regularly to help balance out these bad habits. Also be sure to stand up straight!
