Did you know that how you sit, stand, and move every day can either power you up or pull you down? Posture isn’t just about looking confident (though that’s a nice bonus!) — it’s your body’s foundation. Good posture keeps your muscles happy, your joints pain-free, and your energy levels high. But in our world of binge-watching, endless scrolling, and marathon work hours, posture problems sneak up on almost everyone. The great news? Fixing it is easier than you think — and your future self will thank you!
