Here are the five changes I made and now maintain as habits: 1. Imagine you have a string going through your spine up through your head, and it's pulled straight up. Here's the demo:

Our posture norms are pretty bad. • We slump in our chairs all day. • We have really bad habits of looking down at screens on our laps. Poor posture is normalized and it has all kinds of negative health effects.

Poor posture is normalized and it has all kinds of negative health effects.
Poor posture can cause musculoskeletal pain, circulatory issues, digestive problems, impaired lung function, nerve compression, spinal misalignment, increased stress, fatigue, mood changes, lower motivation, and sleep disturbances.
My team and I went on Red Alert. We discovered through an MRI that my posture was trapping blood in my brain, blocking it from flowing properly to my heart. Was I going to have a seizure? A stroke? I didn't know.

I didn't realize how terrible my posture was until an MRI showed it was slowly killing my brain. A ticking time bomb of a problem that I've now dramatically improved with these five habits. 🧵
