Welcome to our Day 1 exercise of our Posture Series! 🌿
Today we’re focusing on one of the most overlooked but essential parts of posture- your thoracic spine, also known as your mid-back.
Whether you’re sitting at a computer all day, scrolling on your phone, or caring for a little one, this area often becomes stiff and restricted. When that happens, the upper body loses its natural mobility, making it harder to keep your shoulders open and your head comfortably over your spine.
That’s where thoracic extensions come in! These gentle movements help restore flexibility and motion through the middle back allowing for better posture, easier breathing, and less tension through the shoulders and neck.
Here’s how to do them:
✨ Grab a foam roller (smooth ones work best).
✨ Work through three sections — below the shoulder blades, between them, and just above.
✨ In each section, perform five slow extensions, keeping your core lightly engaged to stabilize the lower back.
Even one or two sets a day can help you feel looser, lighter, and more upright! Perfect to add into your nightly routine or as a break from screen time. 📱 📺
