Sit Up Straight! Don’t sit so close to the TV Screen Don’t watch TV all day, turn it off and go out to play !
We’ve all been told by our parents, from a young age, to sit up straight and avoid long hours in front of the computer and sitting in front of the TV. This is because our parents notice that we are slouching in poor posture when sitting too close tothe TV!
Poor posture is the worst enemy for headaches and migraines, because poor posture causes stiffness and misalignment of the first three joints of the neck. This increased stiffness and misalignment of the first 3 joints of the neck then leads to Headaches and Migraines.
Therefore it is crucial that you maintain upright good posture when you are sitting and working at a computer or when relaxing in front of the TV. If you are working in the office get into a habit of getting up and moving out of your working position for a few minutes every few hours before getting back to work.This will allow you to perform neck and shoulder stretches to prevent stiffness and pain from sitting in one position for too long.
If you’re on the phone or reading books, elevate the phone and book so that you avoid looking down at the screen Little adjustments in your daily life can help you obtain good posture. So act now and start getting into better posture!
