Good posture is good health

Written by Rick Maltin

'Sit up straight and stop slouching!' I know these words from across the table. It's Mom pestering advice. At the time it just annoyed me and I thought this admonition had a lot more to do with appearances than anything else. Well now guess what – it really did something for me! According to a recent study in the October 2009 issue of European Journal of Social Psychology researchers discovered that how we sit and stand influences how we feel and behave. Now good posture is good health – we all know that. But not slouching may make us feel better. Me – I sitting up straight and my mom is proud!
