If you’re like me, you probably grew up sitting cross-legged on chairs. It’s a comfortable position, but it’s not always the best for your posture. Here are a few tips to help you break the habit:\n\n

1. Sit up straight. This may seem obvious, but it’s worth repeating. Good posture is key to avoiding back and neck pain.\n\n

2. Use a pillow or lumbar support. If you must sit cross-legged, be sure to use a pillow or lumbar support to maintain the natural curve of your spine.\n\n3. Take breaks often.

Get up and move around every 20 minutes or so to keep your muscles from getting too tense.\n\n4. Stretch before and after sitting. A simple neck and shoulder stretch can help relieve tension headaches caused by poor posture.<\/p>\n \n
