Good Posture is Important For Health

The spines of human beings have
natural curves which enable the
muscles to oppose gravity and hold
their backs erect. As long as the
muscles are strong and able to
maintain the balance of these curves
and to prevent back and shoulder
sagging, the back is comfortable.
When the muscles are too weak, the
back sags, ligaments are stretched
which causes backaches.
To maintain oneself in a healthy
state involves many factors: the
right natural food, rest, exercise,
sleep, fasting, control of emotions
and mind and, last but not least,
good posture. If a body is properly
nourished and cared for, good
posture is not a problem. When the body lacks the
essentials, poor posture is often the result. Once poor
habits have been established, one must faithfully each
day practice corrective exercises and good posture habits.
