Posture and your Health. Is there a connection?
Posture: We’ve all heard our parents and grandparents say “Sit up straight Dear.” Is there anything to it other than what we look like? Is it all aesthetics?
Well, according to some research out of the Journal of Physical Therapy Science, it can have HUGE effects on our HEALTH.
Here’s the conclusion of their research.
“The forward head posture causes expansion of the upper thorax and contraction of the lower thorax, and these morphological changes cause decreased respiratory function.”
Does your posture need improving? Is your posture getting you down? Let me know.

Here's my challenge to you...
If you truly believed your body could heal, grow, repair and thrive - what choices would you make? Would you reach for the panadol OR find out the cause of your pain? Would you suppress your emotions OR explore them deeply? Would you suppress the fever OR let it bring about healing?
These are the important questions that will largely determine how healthy you become over the next 12 moths.
Choose wisely.
