In a previous post I pointed out that if you want to control your posture, it is more effective to remind yourself of your strengths each time you catch yourself slouching, than it is to simply attempt to correct the posture itself. This is because poor posture is a symptom of low self-esteem, not just a bad habit.
Here is a good way to put this fact into practice:
Everyone has a few really good photos of themselves - photos in which you look your best (thinnest, hottest, happiest, most confident, etc.). The camera caught you at your best angle, you were wearing your best colors and your hair looks really good. You probably enjoy looking at these pictures because they make you feel good about yourself. It isn't just a matter of looking good; these pictures probably capture a certain poise or spirit of which you are proud - they illustrate you at your best.
Choose the best of these photos in your mind. The next time you catch yourself slouching, remember that photos, and specifically, remind yourself that you are the person in that picture. You will automatically and immediately (albeit temporarily) correct your posture. With repetition, you will begin to see yourself as the person in the photo more than you see yourself as the person who slouches. Before long, perfect posture will be a habit.

, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want..

ReplyDeleteI needed closure to my Ex's phone activities as though he was cheating but I had no proof to confront him,I felt too bad and helpless during my divorce,thankfully a friend referred me to a Spylord who hacked and gained me remote access to his phone activities,it really helped me during divorce and actually got me custody over my son. Spylord also fixed my credit score that he damaged..I refer Spylord to you on "hackingloop6@gmail. com" also on WhatsApp +1(484)540 - 0785. contact him for any hacking assistance,tell him I referred you.
ReplyDeleteSpy-lord helped me monitor my husband's phone when I was gathering evidence during the divorce. I got virtually every information he has been hiding over a year easily on my own phone: the spy app diverted all his Whatsapp, Facebook, text messages, sent and received through the phone: I also got his phone calls and deleted messages. he could not believe his eyes when he saw the evidence because he had no idea that he was hacked. he can also improve dept on credit cards i strongly recommend invisiblespyloop@gmail.com call/text or whatsapp on (517) 234-3214

ReplyDeleteLets take note of so many things before hiring an hacker! I have been in a really big mess in my relationship for a very long time now and I have been looking for a real and professional hacker to actually assist me in spying my fiances phone but none worked. Spylordhack@gmail.com were the only hackers that took their time out to actually really assist me and I am really so excited. I needed to know what the man I was going to marry was actually really doing. Spylordhack@gmail.com guided me and took their time out to make sure I get the best hacking services and made sure this was not traced back to me .
