Managing your Muscles Sit and Smile : ) Want to ease your back pain and improve and energize your mood at the same time? Good posture is the best start. Throughout the day, take a moment to align your body properly. Most important is to sit on your S.I.T. bones; to find these sharp bones, place your hands under your buttocks and rock forward and back. Notice how, when you rise forward, your body aligns on top of your S.I.T. bones; immediately your back straightens, your chest expands, and your shoulders, neck, and head rise and align. Let your shoulders relax, soften your jaw, lower your chin, and take a few deep calm breaths. Can you feel the difference? This simple shift in posture improves not only your physical well-being but your confidence and sense of self.
