    For those that dealt with chronic muscle tension negatively affecting posture...

    when you fixed your crooked body due to chronic muscle tension, do you think it was more important to do stuff that makes you feel safe or releasing the repressed emotions you had? which was more important in your opinion?

    Tension

    Hi! I hope you're all having a good day so far. My symptoms are connected with tension and trigger points (which I guess are physical symptoms), but the cause of it is probably more psychological than I have thought in the past few years.

    Here's an interesting article on "posture", a topic which has been discussed here recently and in the past. It comes from a structural solution bias but is rife with TMS implications. So, straighten up and pay attention--or lie on your stomach, and tell the posture experts to piss off ...

    Help convince me re: sitting and posture

    I know that according to Sarno, sitting is harmless. But then the news, doctors, and essentially everyone else chimes in with the old 'sitting doubles the pressure on discs,' 'bad posture and long hours of sitting sets you up for pain' etc etc etc ad nauseum.
