Good afternoon.I was reading in one of the magazine about some people having poor posture.This is what I try to careful of.As some people get older and slouching.That I did not want to be and alway try to take of care mind.
But I did not know this:/while your sleeping .To promote proper alignment you want to sleep on your back.The worst for posture is side sleeping.
this I did not know.
I do both.Mostly sleep on my back.Plus I have a pillow under my knee.
This I know as it take the pressure of your back.I still do this.

Something to think about.

It is important to stand tall and straight..I think tho it would take a tremendous amount of slouching to get like in the photo.
Like on a constant basis.
I hope I don't get a hunchback when I get way older. Sometimes they just happen.

I toss and turn a lot in bed. I'm on my back some of the time, on my side others. The pillow under the knees really does make a difference.

I have always slouched, its far to change to undo it now. Sleeping on my stomach or side are the only options, I never sleep on my back due to post nasal drip.

A lot of people that work at computers don't realize they are slouching either @amadeo . It is helpful at break and lunch times for them to do some minor exorcises.
