How to improve your posture at work

Sitting correctly may seem a little difficult at first, and may even lead you to believe that a good posture requires a lot of effort, but this thinking is incorrect. Contrary to what it seems, you can improve and maintain your posture through awareness and a comfortable environment.

Here are some tips that can help you improve your posture:

Place your legs slightly apart with your feet touching the floor. It is important that the height of the chair has the same distance between your knee and the floor (knee flexion should form a 90º angle).

Sit on straight and turn your hips slightly forward.

 Keep your back straight while maintaining the normal curvature of the spine. 

The arms should be dangling over the body or the forearms should be resting on the work table.

Relax your shoulders and keep them straight

Look at the center of the computer screen and keep your chin parallel to the floor. Avoid as much as you have to bow your head to read or write on the computer.

There are several ergonomic products available that offer benefits to the user. You can greatly improve your work conditions by simply buying an adjustable monitor mount.
