"We make hundreds of movement choices all day long, whether we know it or not: Walk or drive? Sit or stand? Hip to the right or to the left? Heels or flats? So how can we make the choices that leave us feeling and moving-even thinking-our best? It starts the ways in which our body is positioned throughout the day, whether working, exercising, or resting. Rethink Your Position is your guide to everyday anatomy and alignment-part by part. Learn how to: ● Avoid a "tech neck" by adjusting your head while looking at your phone ● Set up your computer space to open tight shoulders ● Switch up the way you walk for happier feet and knees ● Care for your hips and psoas muscles by sitting differently ● Adjust your pelvic tilt for a stronger pelvic floor and glutes ● Wake up feeling refreshed by changing your sleep shape ● Find even better form in your regular yoga, Pilates, or fitness workout ● Care for your brain (and mind) with simple movements-like chewing! With her trademark clarity and humor, biomechanist, movement teacher, and bestselling author Katy Bowman provides simple, engaging instructions that will have you rethinking your position by reshaping what you're already doing. Move your body better, one part at a time."--Publisher.
