At LightSpace we talk A LOT about posture. Why? Because bad posture can cause so many problems – from physical pain to poor digestion and difficulty breathing. Not to mention it can make us cranky, irritable, and downright awful to be around!

Here’s one you might not have thought of…did you know that it can affect what people think of you?

For example, the highly prized female body that is so vogue right now – the full butt – could be an indication someone has an extreme lumbar lordosis. See a visual in the pic above. Looks pretty uncomfortable, doesn’t it? So just because someone has a “booty” could just mean that they have poor posture and back pain.

Here’s a great article from the New York Times that discusses some of these points.
