Too much exaggeration in any area along the spine
increases the risk of injury. Our muscles
help with every function of the body and provide strength and stability needed
for good posture and alignment. One part of the spine the cervical spine is
where we experience what is known as tech neck. The cervical spines’ main function
is to balance the head. In an ideal position it lines up perfectly with the thoracic
spine. We’ve all heard it – stand straight with a soldier’s chin.
The possible cause of cervical misalignment is from the
use of cell phones and computers. For example, excessive computer use rounds
the shoulders forward and brings the arms across in front of the torso. These types
of habitual postures and position can lead to chronic back, neck and shoulder
pain.
One way to strengthen
the cervical is to go into a plank making sure the feet are flexed, the hips
are lowered and make sure the head is lifted and looking straight ahead. Looking
down or looking up compromises the spine. Another way is to do cardio like yoga
dance. According to UWHealth.org exercise that is good for the heart is also
good for the spine. Let’s get started
with some yoga dance and a focus on spinal health, because you are only as young as your spine is strong
and flexible.
END: Too
much exaggeration in any area in your life will throw you off balance. Stress
and burnout are prevalent and when we are stressed, we tend to ignore our posture.
Just like the spine we also need mental and soulful alignment, as well as the ability
to be flexible. Life will hand you all kinds of experiences;
both comfort and discomfort. So, it is important that we are strong, flexible
and in alignment ready to face whatever life hands us. This is where we find that
sweet spot between too little and too much, and it is here, we find balance
body, mind and soul. Seek balance in all things and in all things find balance.
