Stand Tall and Move Easy
A New Approach to Better Posture
Joanna Farmer
Dawson College
Stand Tall and Move Easy presents posture as a fundamental skill, a basic fitness component, and a foundation for exercise, sport performance, and efficient movement in daily living. Although written for college students, it is a do-it-yourself approach for anyone wanting to stand taller and move better.
The basic premise of the book is that most people—even athletes—have some postural challenge, and that with knowledge, self-awareness, and an active lifestyle, they can overcome such challenges. Your body can feel good and move well at any age.
The book is divided into three parts: Posture Theory, Posture Assessment and Analysis, and Planning and Carrying Out a Posture Program. Additional documents freely available from the CCDMD online catalogue include an exercise planning chart and lifestyle monitor chart, as well as a Teaching Guide, which contains the following headings: Course Design, Answers to Quizzes and Activities, and Notes on Activities.

Great book that explains how posture and lifestyle affect your health and well being. Great for getting to know one's body better (and there fore oneself).
