“They say” to instantly improve your posture, imagine there’s a string at the top of your head that is pulling your head upward. Improved posture, “they say,” aligns your organs and spine, clears your breathing, and makes you more comfortable, balanced and awake.

Sit up straight now, and you’re guaranteed a better day! Or so “they say.”
