• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Did you know that...? We (as a society) are now heading towards an abyss with our exponential modern-day sedentary lifestyle and the arrival of smartphones, computers and other media devices, which lead to the occurrence of a mind-body disconnection. As a result, over 10,000 publications (and counting!) link poor posture to dozens of chronic diseases including obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer and depression, never mind the obvious chronic back pain. Lawrence explains the connection between extended sitting, poor posture and its detrimental role to our health. The book is pertinent to almost every age and a must-read for parents of younger children, who are born into the modern lifestyle. What if you could turn this around? In light of the fact that sitting and technology are simply here to stay, Rethinking Posture in the Modern World is a wake-up call which provides straight-up strategies on how to counter the long-term damage of poor posture. In it, Lawrence (who brings with him over twenty years of experience in this field) crosses the lines between consciousness, re-patterning and health. He provides clear strategies, uncommon sense, systematic logic and critical thinking of posture principles, and challenges our approaches to exercise and how we sit, move - and, more importantly, gives solutions on what we can do about it. Rethinking Posture in the Modern World is a novel approach that: - Outlines a simple guide to analyze posture and correct it. In fact, good posture should be on par with proper dental hygiene - Explains how to adapt more primal movement patterns (those that we had when we were children) in order to strengthen and correct posture - Encourages the use of ACE (Active Conscious Engagement) with easy-to-follow strategies while sitting, standing and exercising by actively transferring the stress off of your spine, discs and joints to your core muscles, so that you will be 'exercising' all day - Demonstrates how children should sit and carry backpacks without causing long-term degeneration of the spine.
