Most people are told to “pull your shoulders back and stand tall.”
But when you do that, notice where your breath goes — it rises into your chest. That’s shallow breathing, and it keeps your body in stress mode.
Now, try this: pull your thighs back instead.
Feel how your chest lifts naturally and your breath drops lower, into your belly? That’s diaphragm breathing — calm, deep, and natural.
The way you’ve been standing all your life may be restricting your breathing. When you change your posture, your breathing changes — and when your breathing changes, your whole body relaxes.
This simple shift can make a huge difference for people dealing with back pain, anxiety, and stress.
In the clinic, I see it every day — people feel calmer and breathe easier as soon as their body is upright.
