Posture Check
Sitting at a desk for extended periods of time can cause tension on the spine. We often compromise unnatural positions to accommodate feeling more comfortable, such as crossing our legs. However, this position is actually very taxing on our lower back! Instead, uncross your legs and keep both feet flat on the floor. Can you feel the difference in your lower back? Proper posture will help allivate back pain and promote a stronger, more engaged core. You can engage your core even more by removing the chair and sitting on a Swiss exercise ball.
