Aligned : How to Fix Your Posture and Transform Your Health

A celebrated osteopath reveals how we can all improve our posture, and why bad alignment not only impacts our musculoskeletal system, but also our mental health, our sleep, our hormones, our stress levels, and so much more.

We've all come across the tech neck, suffered from stiff limbs or found ourselves slipping lower and lower into our desk chairs. Our modern lives of desk-jobs, zoom-calls and car commutes take their toll on our posture, often making us look slumped and haggard. But we might not realise that our bad posture can have far more significant effects. In Aligned, celebrated osteopath Nadia Alibhai reveals how bad alignment not only negatively impacts our musculoskeletal system, but also has massive effects on our mental health, digestion, circulation, sleep and hormones. Using client case studies and deep research, Nadia shows that our bodies are designed to be one unit of function and motion and, when we let our posture slide, it has a domino effect on all our other systems. The good news is that we can all improve our posture with simple, effective exercises and better knowledge. Nadia shares the easy habits, stretches and tools we can build into our daily lives to improve our alignment and feel better in our own bodies. Deeply researched, practical and inspiring, Aligned will show how we can all learn to carry ourselves better, but also improve our mood, increase energy, and transform our health.
