meditation 05.06.19

For today's meditation I am going back to one we have listened to a while ago from the mindful movement on calming the busy mind. This one focuses on feeling the gap between each breath, allowing you to let go of tensions and become present and aware of sensations.

wellness: posture chairs!

Wellness comes in many forms, and there are even more ways we can improve our well-being. I want to share my discovery of my posture chair, which drastically improved my back pain associated with long hours sitting at my computer.

I suffer from upper back pain when I sit for extended periods on a regular office chair. This takes the form of a sharp burning between my shoulders, spreading across my upper back and up my neck, and can also trigger headaches. Not a great situation to be in.

After suffering with this for quite some time, and trying things like regular breaks, upgrading to a more fancy office chair with 'better' support, stretching etc, I discovered posture chairs...

... My new chair has made a huge difference to my back pain. You sit with your knees kneeling on the lower pad with your feet kicked out behind you, and your bottom on the upper pad. I was lucky enough to have my work place buy me my chair, but if you are not this lucky they are pretty affordable (much more affordable in comparison with some regular office chairs).
