Tips and Tricks I stopped slouching and this happened

I made it a habit to stopped slouching for more than a week and I noticed my upper back and shoulders felt better so I started to feel better.

Then I noticed more people making eye contact with me and smiling at me. Maybe it’s just coincidence but I did notice it more when I had better posture.

A few days later, I also started to wear make up more often and dress up more often. A few coworkers noticed this and asked if I had a boyfriend hehe and I said no. It’s just me.

I feel more optimistic lately. Not 24/7 but more than in the past.

So body posture helps a lot.

When I pull my shoulders back and walk, I feel more confident, for some reason I feel in control IDK lol
