I think what you’re saying is great. I’m glad you brought up values and beliefs. This ‘posture’ idea can be pretty deep, can’t it?
Thanks so much for writing, and hello from New York!

sure, imitation is a big factor. And sure it is imortant what parents, but also teachers and at least everybody DOES or how he uses himself, when being in contact with a child. As Ralph Waldo Emerson has been quoted: “What you DO speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.”

And as you pointed out, it’s ONE factor among others. I found that values, beliefs and (wrong) bodymap seem to be the most important factors (if one want’s to improve posture). Would you agree??

All the best from Finland,

P.S. I sometimes use the phrase “A picture shows more than a 1000 words” Once a pupil answerd “Oh yes? Try to put that phrase into a picture”
