Are you making one of these top 3 posture mistakes?

1. Thinking posture is what you do instead what you feel.
2. Fighting the support that is built into the human system.
3. Focusing on one area instead of taking a global approach.

If you've read my book When Things Stick: Untangling Your Body from Old Patterns there is of course something that you 'do'. But the change that endures is recognizing that what you feel is stability, power, ease - what that means in your life and becoming familiar with how you get there.

Think of a common situation during your normal day when you typically feel defeated, overwhelmed or in need of support. Where does that feeling express in your body? Can you feel the position you take when you feel you have to do everything, that you have no support?

Can you instead organize your pelvis as if you are about to take a seat? Not in a way where anyone outside can see, but internally, make that postural change and notice what happens?

It's a simple shift, but changes your entire spine and gives you access to your ankles. Do you feel it?

Your body is designed to offer you specific support that is highlighted by understanding the 3 Keys. How do you organize yourself to take advantage of the internal support your body creates when it works with gravity, instead of against it?

That is a concept that many of us need to learn again and again, because this level of habit is deeply ingrained. But it's a surprisingly quick fix. Knowing when to use that fix when you need it is part of what you learn in my book (read an excerpt HERE).
