Working in an office for 35 hours a week can wreak havoc on your posture. I know because I suffer from having bad posture. The trouble is I really should know better and I cannot blame my employer as they have provided me with all the necessary equipment – adjustable office chairs, footrest, monitor shelf etc.
Care Bears
What has Care Bears go to do with bad posture I hear you ask? Well I slouch even when I’m not at work. So much so that my Mam has said that I resemble one of the creatures from CareBears…. (click play and it should show you the Green Creature Slave)
….yes my Mam is lovely huh?!
#OfficeYoga
Anyway moving on! I really need to work on my posture and to increase my movement whilst I’m at work. My boss has joked (I hope so!) about having a gym installed in our basement but I have found these awesome #officeyoga positions that I could do by sitting at my desk. Thanks to Furniture at Work for sharing.
Seems pretty simple that even I could do this! I’m determined to give it a go and I’ll report back and let you know if my posture improves.
Tell me, have you got bad posture? Do you work in an office?

My posture is terrible since moving to Canada – I think it is from hunching against the snow. I used to have such great posture!
