Got my snow tires put on this week and sat in this tiny waiting room with 6 other people. 6 chairs. All full.
āØNo one talking.
āØEvery single head down, shoulders rounded, phones glowing.
(Yes⦠me too.)
Then I looked up and realized:āØ
we all had the same exact posture - collapsed chest, jutting neck, curved spine.āØText neck in full force.
But then something sweet happened: one person broke the silence⦠then another⦠and suddenly we were all chatting about how long our cars were taking.
āØHuman connection for the win.ā¤ļø
Hereās your reminderš
āØYour head weighs 12 lbs
āØāØAt 45 degrees forward, your neck is holding 50ā60 lbs
āØāØThat āphone postureā can cause headaches, neck/back pain, and even reduce lung capacity
But we can fix it:
1ļøā£Bring the phone UP to your eyes
āØ2ļøā£Keep a neutral spine
āØ3ļøā£Schedule little digital timeouts (your neck + nervous system will thank you)
We are happiest when weāre fully engaged in what weāre doing.
Lift your head. Look around.āØ
Life is happening right in front of you.šāØ
