I’ve been thinking a lot about posture lately because, truth be told, mine is pretty bad. For 8 hours a day, five days a week, I sit hunched in front of my computer. If you do the math, that’s not only 40 hours of work time, but it’s also 40 hours of spine-crunching, neck twisting and back wrenching sit time…and that’s not even counting the quality-couch time I spend with my laptop lover almost every evening. By then end of the day, I feel like ol’ Quasimodo. I need better posture STAT! And I have a hunch that if you are reading this right now, you do too.

Lucky for us, there’s a 15-minute routine that can help straighten us out, even while we sit at our desks or spend time in our cubes. It all starts with paying attention to our sitting habits. Then, with a combination of shoulder rolls, a few simple yoga moves, like Pyramid and Chair Pose, and some side bends, we’re on the road to proper form.

So long, Quasi. We’re bringing sexy back.
