People who move better, feel better and enjoy life better. Improving body alignment helps to keep joints in the back and neck moving better. And improving body alignment reduces unnecessary, gravity-induced stress on your back and neck.
So what do you do about putting yourself in positions that are not even close
to ideal alignment? Hovering over desks and computers; bending and twisting
to lift and pull; texting and using social media on your phone; just driving;
and the list goes on.
The answer is twofold: move smart and return to center frequently. To move
smart, we need to move often, with wisdom and restraint. This is complicated
but always requires core stabilization of your lower back.
Returning to center is simple. The “posture reset“ returns your body alignment
to as close to ideal as you are capable… whether you are sitting or standing.
To minimize back pain and neck pain, you need to develop the habit of
performing the “posture reset“, dozens and dozens of times throughout your
day.
The “posture reset“ requires strong core engagement; middle back extension;
and squeezing the shoulders, then the head back… and relaxing slowly. The
entire process takes less than two seconds.

engagement“, “the middle back linchpin“, and “shoulder and head retraction”.
