Here are some other things that excellent posture will do for you: Facilitates breathing Having good posture puts your body in alignment to function at its best. Good posture naturally enables you to breathe properly. I started appreciating this after I began paying attention to my posture while meditating. I find that I am able to inhale a lot more air when I am sitting up straight. When I have good posture, my breathing during meditation is longer, slower and deeper. This is why yoga, pilates and meditation exercises pay so much attention to getting your posture and sitting positions right. Increases concentration and thinking ability When you are breathing properly, you improve the function of your brain. Our brains require a lot of oxygen to operate well. More air, more oxygen. More oxygen, more brain food. Our brain regulates all the voluntary and involuntary actions of our body. An oxygenated brain will keep healthy, and it will also keep you from acting like a buffoon, and that is good for everyone. Improve your image People with good postures look smarter and more attractive. That is because when you align yourself correctly you look healthy, and health looks good. Feel even better about yourself When you have good posture, it helps to make you feel more self-confident. Try sitting in a bad posture for 30 seconds. Then switch to a good posture for 30 seconds. Did you notice any difference in how you felt? If you didn’t experience a difference, then fluff up your curly hair and try again. Maybe you will notice a difference next time. Avoid health complications Bad posture can lead to many health complications over time, such as increased risks of back pain, poor blood circulation, and shortness of breath. It’s better for you and you look better when you stand up straight.
