Head ramping

Instead of letting your head dangle forward when you’ve logged on, put some strength in your swipe and use a little muscle in your upper back to hold your head and spine up.

~ Katy Bowman, from https://www.nutritiousmovement.com/what-your-phone-is-doing-to-your-body-and-how-to-fix-it/

Over in the Movers Mindset project, Bowman is someone who has long been on my to-talk-to list. Some day!

Until then, you’ll just have to read everything she writes. It’s terrific. Large amounts of actionable stuff around bare feet. This article is about what you are doing to yourself through your habitual phone use—uh, it’s horrific. But then, maybe if you were empowered with some knowledge, then you’d change? (I know that worked for me!)
