Most people don’t realize they’re sitting on their tailbone instead of their sit bones — and it’s one of the biggest causes of low back and hip discomfort during the day! 🪑💡Here’s why it matters:
Tailbone sitting (posterior pelvic tilt):
🔺Rounds your lower back and increases spinal strain
🔺Tightens hip flexors and weakens core muscles over time
🔺Can contribute to back pain, stiffness, and even poor breathing mechanics
Sit-bone sitting (neutral pelvis):
🔹Keeps your spine in its natural alignment
🔹Activates your core muscles gently for support
🔹Reduces pressure on your lower back and tailbone
🔹Promotes better posture and comfort, especially during long hours of sitting
Tip: Feel for your sit bones — those bony points under your glutes — and make sure you’re sitting on them, not behind them ✅
