postural alignment
Postural alignment refers to the proper positioning of your body when standing, sitting, or moving. It involves aligning your head, shoulders, spine, hips, knees, and ankles in a way that distributes weight evenly and maintains balance. Good posture helps reduce strain on muscles and joints, preventing pain and discomfort. It also promotes optimal functioning of organs and enhances overall health. Factors such as muscle strength, flexibility, and habitual movements can affect alignment. Being mindful of your posture can lead to better physical well-being and improved confidence in appearance and movement.
