Posture has a profound influence over how we feel, not just in our bodies but in our minds as well. Slouching has been shown to increase feelings of anxiety, low self-esteem, and low mood. In the same recent study, even the language used by the test subjects who were asked to slouch contained more negative words than that of the subjects who sat upright for the experiment. Hunching our spines can also instil a negative recall bias (the tendency to remember bad things more than the good), and make us less productive. Add in the fact that many body aches and pains are caused by poor posture!
With that in mind, we designed our Essential Posture workshop to address common computer-work challenges, from fatigue to specific patterns of habitual tension and muscular imbalances associated with working at a desk.
In this workshop:
- You’ll be guided systematically through an assessment of your workspace and seated and standing postures
- You will discover ways of standing and sitting which reduce wear-and-tear on the joints and minimise stiffness
- You will learn strategies for making your desk setup kinder to your body
- You will explore techniques derived from yoga and other movement traditions to help undo the effects of sitting at a desk
“The team really enjoyed the Essential Posture workshop and it was both informative and interactive. The service we received leading up to and the organising of the workshop was fantastic! This is a great workshop for any business that wants to support their team’s wellbeing as it shines a light how to better look after yourself whilst sat at a desk for long periods of time.”
