A good posture not only makes you look confident, but it is also important for your health. Here's how to maintain a good posture throughout the day.

Bad Posture

Slouching puts great stress on your spine and other organs. It can delay digestion, cause frequent headaches and even harm your lungs.

Sitting posture

To maintain a good posture while sitting, press your back against the support of your chair. Place a cushion on your lower back to maximise comfort.

Walking Posture

A good walking posture involves a straight back and neck. You also need to pull your shoulders back to avoid over-arching of back.

Text Neck

Stop hovering over your smartphone all day. Either hold it in front of you or take frequent breaks to look up and stretch your neck.

Avoid Heels

Heels are generally very bad for your spine and feet. This can lead to long-term back pain. It is advisable to wear flats or platforms on a daily basis.

Core Exercises

You may not know this but a weak core can make you slouchy. Dedicate some time to train your abs and core muscles.

Conclusion

Posture can be made perfect by practice and self-reminders. You can also wear a posture corrector if needed.
