GimmeMedals Dec 2021 5:12pm, 29 Dec 2021 21836 posts	0 GimmeMedals I think years of looking at computer screens and marking books has a part to play in my slouchy posture and forward head position, Rosehip I certainly believe that the calf issues I had could well be attributed to daily sitting on an office chair that was too high, so I put my toes on the chair base with my heels raised. Funny how it didn't occur to me at the time.

I'm still doing the "stand against the wall" task most days to try and get familiar with where my head should be - it doesn't come naturally at all, especially when on the move, so I'm being very conscious abut it when walking and trying to remember when running. I've just about finished level 1 and have been opening and closing my ankle joints this morning.
