What's Included in Your Posture and Ergonomics Online Webinar or Onsite Workshop?

Many just-posture sessions focus just on exercises and stretches, which is useful, but this misses the point for employers who want greater productivity and less staff absence.

Whilst many just-ergonomic sessions focus on ergonomics and ignore the individual’s posture, how they work and their work-life balance.

These posture and ergonomics webinars are all about posture and work.

With many of your staff working at the desk or lab, and either in the office or at home, you can help them to work comfortably, to get the most out of their day, and benefit from reducing the likelihood of costly staff absence or reduced productivity.

TOGETHER WE TAILOR YOUR SESSION PRECISELY TO YOUR COMPANY CHOOSE ANY OR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING TOPICS…

The best work/break ratios for optimum health and productivity – so you can finish the day feeling accomplished and fresh
The best way to use a standing desk – there’s more to this than you think!
The best quick stretches for during the working day – that won’t take all day
How to set up your desk, chair and computer/laptop for optimum comfort and productivity
Finding and keeping neutral posture – so working doesn’t hurt
Working From Home WFH and hybrid posture tips and ergonomic hacks
How to make the most of your chair – whatever it might be!
The 5 most common ergonomic risk factors – the things most likely to cause you pain and discomfort – and how to avoid them
The best way to position your laptop, and/or your external screens, your keyboard, mouse and other peripherals
The importance for laptop users of using a separate keyboard and mouse – and which ones will suit you best
Tips and tricks for the best eye health – avoid fatigue and eyestrain
Setting up your home environment – plants, lighting, space and time
Q&A time with a posture and ergonomics specialist

Our Clients Say

Thanks so much for the sessions you ran yesterday at our Staff Away Day. Feedback so far is that everyone really enjoyed them, and I can safely say that we will all now be a lot more conscious of what we are doing with our necks!

Thank you as usual for your wonderful work, we always have good feedback from your classes.

Thank you James, we had a great afternoon everyone found the presentation useful, interesting and fun. It was great to see everyone laughing and interacting during your talk. Would recommend James to anyone which I have done.

Thank you so much. Its rare indeed to find a roomful of teachers laughing and having fun after a long day at work but that was just what did happen tonight. Your approach was interesting and very practical. A really great evening and one that we will most definitely repeat.

IS YOUR SCREEN AT THE RIGHT HEIGHT?
If you're suffering from neck and back pain at your computer or laptop, it could be because your screen isn't at the right height! 🤔 Check below to see if any of these are you 👇
🌟 If your screen is too high👆you're craning up to see it.
🌟 If your screen is too low👇you're craning down to see it.
🌟 If your screen is too far away, you're craning forwards to see it!
Here's how to get your screen at the right height 👇
1. Firstly get your chair sorted out, with your hips a bit above knee height and your feet flat on the floor.
2. Now make sure your keyboard and mouse 🖱 are at the same height as your arm if your elbow's bent at 90 degrees. You might need a footrest and a higher sitting position for this.
3. Now do whatever it takes to get your screen at the right height. You can use a monitor stand if you're using a screen, or a laptop stand if you're using a laptop. You can even use a stack of books 📚 to raise your screen. The top of your screen needs to be around eye 👀 or eyebrow height.
4. Now check and make sure your screen is about an arm's length away. Yay! Better desk posture sorted 🙌
🌟 Save if you learned something 😉

🌟 4. Maybe your screen is too low, so you're pulling down to see into it
🌟 5. You're not taking enough breaks. If you haven't stepped away from your desk in a while, do it now! 🚶‍♂️ Go on, you know you'll feel better for it! 😉

DO YOU WANT TO BE MORE PRODUCTIVE AT YOUR DESK?
Take a moment to stop!! 🛑 Here's why 👇
🌟 Every 30 minutes, try sitting for 20, standing for 8 and moving around for 2 minutes🚶‍♀️If this is possible for you to try today, give it a go! The important thing to remember is not to sit in the same position for long periods of time. It will leave you feeling achey and tired 😴
🌟 Every 20 minutes, see if you can look away 20 feet for 20 seconds. If your eyes 👀 are tired and sore, you're going to end up falling further and further into your screen. So giving your eyes a rest really helps your productivity and your posture too!
Why does this make you more productive? 🤔
🌟 Because taking a break from the tunnel vision, gives us the energy to get more done in less time! 💯 And it feels better too 🙌

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH YOUR FEET AT THE DESK?
Have you ever paid attention to what you do with your feet sat at your desk? 🤷‍♀️ Now's the time to check it out for better desk posture! 👇
🌟 Are you a leg crosser? Which can leave you unbalanced and collapsing down one side.
🌟 Are you a foot dangler? Leaving your legs putting lots of tension into your body 😣
🌟 Are you the wrap around kid? Wrapping your legs around your chair pulls you down into your pelvis, which leaves you short of breath 💨 digesting badly and can give you a sore neck 💥
🌟 Or are you a FEET HERO? With your feet resting flat on the floor 🙌
And if you can't rest your feet flat on the floor, why not try a footrest to support your feet.
Why is having your feet flat on the floor important? It helps you have a nice, natural, comfortable neutral posture 😊

WHAT'S THE BEST SLEEPING POSITION?
🌟 So which is best out of the 3 normal sleeping positions? 🤷‍♂️
Let's take a look 👇
1. Sleeping on YOUR FRONT - This position is the worse as it puts a lot of pressure into your jaw and neck. It's not very good to sleep this way but a lot of people do as they find it comfy!
2. Sleeping on YOUR SIDE - This position gets 2nd place. It's really important if you sleep on your side to make sure you have enough pillows to support your head so you have a nice neutral neck.
3. Sleeping on YOUR BACK - First place and the best sleeping position goes to sleeping on your back! 🥇 Unfortunately not many people can sleep this way and it can make you snore a lot 😴
🌟 So if you're happy sleeping on your side that's probably the one to go for. If you're on your front try to sleep on your side and if you sleep on your back, lucky you!

HOW DO YOU SIT AT YOUR DESK?
Something you may have never really thought about 🤷‍♂️ Take a moment and check in on how you're sitting right now! 👇
🌟 Are you sat at the front of your chair getting dragged into the dreaded screen? With the chair back doing nothing to support you? 💺
🌟 Are you a chair dangler? With your feet not really touching the floor or having to wrap around the chair behind them.
🌟 Is your chair too low? So you're having to type like a T-Rex 🦖
If any of the above are you, stop and take a few minutes to get set up more comfortably 👇I promise you'll feel the difference!
🌟 1. Have your knees just below your hips or about the same height.
🌟 2. Make sure your feet are flat on the floor or use a footrest or a pile of books to support your feet.
🌟 3. Have your arms at the same height as your keyboard ⌨️
🌟 4. And last but not least don't forget to use your chair back for support, that's what it's there for.

HAVE YOU LOST YOUR SITTING BONES?
Your Sit-bones or bum-bones, whatever you want to call them! 🤷‍♂️ are really useful particularly if you are working on a office seat or if you are a musician like a pianist.
🌟 So, how do we find our sit-bones? Easy! Find a nice and comfy chair (padded if poss), take your hands and slide them in from the side, palm up, under your backside, and feel around for the two round bones. They’re in there, I promise! 💯
🌟 Sit-bones are bones in your butt for sitting on, they are there to support you when you are sitting, just like you have feet for standing on! They're your feet for your seat.
🌟 When you have found them, have a big slump and notice that they disappear in front of your hands and they're not supporting you, then try sitting up far too straight so that they disappear away behind your hands. You will notice you can hardly breathe 💨 and they aren't supporting you anymore either and it's far to tiring!
🌟 You can tell, somewhere in the middle is where those bones are and if you get them in the right place you'll have good support for a relaxed neutral spine, letting your sit bones rest into your chair, leaving your spine nice and long, and your head balancing freely on top of that nice long comfortable spine. Yay! Well done 🙌
🌟 What are you sitting on right now?🤔 Let me know 👇
Want to learn how to sit on your sit-bones, an Alexander Technique teacher can show you how. See link in bio or visit posturestars.com for in-person and online Alexander Technique sessions 😊

MIGRAINES AT THE COMPUTER?
Here are 5 helpful tips to help you manage your posture better. So you have less tension in your spine, helping reduce the likelihood and severity of your migraines👇
🌟 1. Firstly and most importantly if you're working away from the office have a dedicated workspace at home that you can set up ergonomically 👩‍💻
🌟 2. Make sure you've got a good seated posture. If you're sat too low, your elbows will be lower than your wrists which can hurt your arms where they press on the desk 😣 Try using cushions to raise yourself up to a better height at the desk. And make sure your back is supported!
🌟 3. Have a nice lie down to give your spine a rest. Lying down in semi-supine, which is an Alexander Technique exercise is great for this 🙌
🌟 4. Take plenty of breaks and making time for movement to give your spine a bit of activity 🚶‍♀️
🌟 5. Make sure you get plenty of restorative sleep 😴 If you're a front sleeper try to sleep on your side it's going to be better and put less pressure on your spine.

TENSE JAW AT YOUR COMPUTER?
Jaw tension can add to all sorts of tension in your head, neck and shoulders 😣
🌟 Try these 3 steps to make it much better! 👇
🌟 1. Bring yourself into a nice open, neutral posture.
🌟 2. Think about letting go of your tongue and softening it. It goes all the way down the front of your neck, so you don't want to be holding around this area. Notice how you can type or use your phone📱without tensing your tongue or jaw. No effort required, just let it go!
🌟 3. Think about having a little space between your upper and lower teeth, even with your mouth closed. You can still have a nice resting jaw, without it having to be clamped up into your upper teeth.

5 BENEFITS TO BETTER POSTURE
Improved Posture has so many benefits, both physically and mentally! 🙌
Here are my Top 5 Benefits 👇
🌟 1. IMPROVED CONFIDENCE - Great Posture works wonders for your confidence 🙌 A study where students adopted upright poses🚶‍♀️ were found to be much more likely to entertain positive beliefs about themselves than students who were encouraged to slouch.
🌟 2. FEELING HAPPIER - Happiness and Posture are closely intertwined 😊 A study found that patients with mild to moderate depression felt more alert and reported less anxiety after changing their posture to keep their back and shoulders upright while sitting.
🌟 3. LESS PAIN - Having an open, upright body means better balance and less pressure on your joints. Your skeleton is there to support you - let it do it's job!
🌟 4. LESS STRESS AND ANXIETY - As well as helping you feel better physically, better posture means easier breathing 💨 Easier breathing helps you feel calmer and more relaxed 🧘‍♀️
Try this - sit up as straight as you can by tensing, and notice how it restricts your breathing💨
🌟 5. LOOKING BETTER - It's easy to spot someone with good, effortless posture, they stand tall, with open shoulders and a long neck and an air of confidence! 😎
Which benefit do you think is the most important? I'd love to know 👇😊

Here are 4 easy ways to be mindful of your posture and wellbeing 👇
🌟 1. Sit down well in the first place to start sitting well as you work. If you sit down badly to start with, you can only get a better position by tensing yourself 😖
🌟 2. Pay some attention to yourself as much as you're paying attention to the screen that will drag you in! 🖥️ Don't let your head get dragged into the screen. If you find your head is jutting forward to see the screen better, you can always increase your font size. This will help prevent shoulder and neck pain.
🌟 3. Resting your eyes 👀 is very important. Looking away from the screen and becoming aware of your surroundings helps rest your eyes. A top tip is after 20 minutes at a computer spend 20 seconds looking at something 20 feet or more away!
🌟 4. If you're starting to feel your posture getting drained and your tiring out, just stop what your doing at the computer get up and move around!🚶‍♀️

BACK PAIN AT YOUR COMPUTER?👩‍💻
It's time to take a break from your desk and give your poor back a rest!
🌟 Try this really easy exercise! It's a Alexander Technique exercise called Semi - supine 👇
🌟 Grab some books 📚 off your bookcase, cook books are great!
🌟 Lie on something comfy on your back, with your head resting on the books
🌟 Rest your hands on your tummy, knees up in the air with your feet flat on the floor
🌟 Then you're looking to let go of your back, let go of your neck, let go of your head and do some extra special thinking 🙏 That thinking is about coming to quiet and stopping and it just gives a chance for all that tension to release 💨
🌟 So you let your neck release to allow your head to release, so your back can release. It becomes more and more easy the more you practise, 10 minutes a day is all you need! 🙌

Mobile phone use is a top culprit for neck pain 💯
💫 You can see in the first pic the phone screen dragging me in. Literally. Our eyes lead our posture down and into the screen, drawing our heads down with it as they go. And this posture over time leads to what's called "text neck", the jutting forward and down of our heads on our necks. And look at my rounded shoulders.... Ouch! 😖 My neck definitely didn't like me sitting in this position.
If you want to beat it, you've got to learn a different way of looking at your phone. It's simple to do but hard to remember! 👇
💫 As you can see in the second pic, I have simply brought the phone up to me, instead of me going down to the phone. 'Dock' the phone to you instead of the other way round. Much more comfy and no more neck pain! 🙌
Give it a go today! 🙂👍

HOW TO SIT ON YOUR SIT-BONES!
Your Sit -bones or bum bones, whatever you want to call them, are really useful particularly if you are working on a office seat 💺 or if you are a musician like a Pianist 🎹 or Guitarist 🎸
🌟 SIT-BONES are the bones in your butt for sitting on, they are there to support you when you are sitting, just like you have feet for standing on!
🌟 Give it a go! Sitting this way means you'll have good support for a relaxed neutral spine, letting your sit-bones rest into your chair, leaving your spine nice and long, and your head balancing freely on top of that nice long comfortable spine. Yay! Well done 🙌
