In this video you will learn a quick and easy posture exercise that you can do throughout your day to start building better posture habits and decrease pain and stiffness in your neck and back.

1. Sit your hips all the way back in your chair
2. Put your feet flat on the floor with your ankles under your knees, and your knees in line with your hips (two 90 degree angles)
3. Grow tall through your spine, reaching the top of your head towards the ceiling
4. Place your palms up on your lap and roll the front of your shoulders and chest open
5. Gently squeeze your lower shoulder blades together, down and back
6.Tuck your chin straight back (not down) to align your head over your neck (I demonstrate this movement a few times in this video since it can be a tricky one to understand)
9. Take a few deep breaths
8. To continue typing flip your palms back down while the rest of your posture remains the same
9. Set a reminder/alarm on your phone every 15-20 minutes and reset this posture until it becomes more of a natural habit.
