Posture

Posture is how you sit and stand. Good posture is sitting up straight which with a young child, their back shows a graceful ‘S’ curve and their movements are easy and effortless. It's important to have good posture because bad posture can cause back problems. It can be so painful and you are not able to move. This is one of the main reasons why people are unable to go to work.

According to the research, the posture of some kids is getting worse. They usually play computer and video games which causes a bad effect on their spine. A new study says the way we use modern technology is giving us bad posture. That's because we usually lean forward and hunch over when we use it. It's a bad effect on our spine and can lead to serious back problems.

Considering our spine, we should sit up straight and keep regular exercise. It's very important for our health.

"The key message is to limit the amount of time you spend hunched over a keyboard and be active as often as you can." I can't agree more!
