What is good posture?

By Team Members Of Yore, Wed May 13, 2015

New clients often ask me to analyze their posture or teach them ‘proper posture’. This is actually a complicated question because we are not 2D characters on a poster, we move 3 dimensionally. You can correct or hold your body in a certain posture but then the second you take a step, that will change. Assuming a certain posture also depends on what we’re feeling and thinking–our body responds to these things. If you slept poorly last night or if you’re grieving, your body will likely reflect that. Whereas if you are wearing your new outfit you love or can’t wait to meet up with a friend later, your body will show this.

In short, posture is organic and constantly changing. That said, I do have some tips on how to shift your body. Check out my definition of ‘good posture’.
