🪑 Is Poor Posture Secretly Affecting Your Health?

In our screen-filled lives, slouching becomes second nature — leading to back pain, low energy, and even poor confidence. Correcting posture isn’t just about looking good — it’s about better breathing, improved digestion, and overall well-being.

  • Relieves back, neck, and shoulder pain
  • Boosts lung capacity & breathing
  • Improves digestion & circulation
  • Reduces fatigue
  • Enhances confidence & presence
💡 Research says: A study in the International Journal of Yoga found that 8 weeks of yoga improved postural stability and reduced lower back pain by 56%.
