I was experiencing some neck pain, and went online in search of some at-home remedies. Of the remedies, posture was one of them which got me thinking: “Does posture really matter that much?”.

So will fixing my posture help with my neck pain and grant me numerous other benefits i see on these blogs?

    I’ve had DOGSHIT posture my whole life. Don’t really care about it. Otherwise very fit, active, and healthy.

    Now I have a bulging disk and a schmorl hernia in my spine. When that shit starts hurting, it’s genuinely paralyzing. Worse than breaking a bone, and the spine does not heal from that naturally.

    I don’t think you have to build a lifestyle around stretching, yoga, proper posture, and mobility exercises, but dear god do some little things to keep your knees, spine, and neck in working order
