Standing I W T Y.1 day ago
How I did it: I noticed
long ago, that I really slouch when I sit in front of the computer.
I also felt
that this slouching is something I do on a daily basis while sitting by the
dinner table, on the bus, while I walk and so on. And when I noticed how it looks
from the side (horrible!) I decided to do something about it. I didn’t really know where to start, so I just
tried to sit and stand up straight every time I felt I was slouching. And after
a few tries it worked-I sit up straight without thinking about it too much, I
walk with my shoulders back and my back straight and so on. It really made me aware
of my body, and sitting and holding myself like that looks much more graceful and
elegant then slouching. Read how I did it… 1 week ago
I continue to learn more about my body and the way I hold it.
This feels never ending. Just when I’m confident I’ve mastered keeping my sholders back, I realize that I’m still leaning forward, and so on. 1 week ago
Many of the postures in class encourage strengthening and lengthening of my spine. Plus also strengthening my core. I’m being more mindful of my posture out of class and hopefully this will make a difference. 2 weeks ago
How I did it: I saw a recent photo of myself and got mad at how slumped over I looked. So I decided then and there to change it. Having good posture involves being aware of your body...you have to constantly monitor that you are holding yourself erect. But after a week I no longer felt I was 'making' myself stand or sit up straight, I just was. It felt natural and easy. But the initial week was so hard! Read how I did it… 2 years ago
