Perfect Posture explains why and how standing in a particular manner properly proportions and evenly tones your body front to back and side to side from top to bottom. It's the upright position of alignment where a normal state of continuous slight tension, called tonus, is coursing evenly through all the weight bearing muscles of your body. With practice, this position of alignment can be maintained without conscious effort even while standing and feeling relaxed. It can be maintained while using no more effort than you do with your current way of standing. Through concentration and establishment of centered postural habits you will have a natural, calorie burning tonus always running through all those usually flaccid muscles of your stomach, buttocks and legs. Considering this, it now seems time to say "Let your posture be your exercise, and your exercise be your posture." Perfect Posture: it's not just for good looks anymore. What is Perfect Posture? Perfect Posture is the process of maintaining the body in equilibrium of balance. What is meant by the phrase "equilibrium of balance"? Equilibrium is the harmony that results from the balance of contraries. It's the dead center, where the opposition of opposing forces, being equal in strength, succeeds in a balanced, resting motion. It's the central point - the point within the circle of physical symmetry. It's the living synthesis of counterbalanced power. Perfect Posture refers to this subject with a detailed explanation of the how and why of these precepts. This doctrine of equilibrium, balance, centering and symmetry is fundamental in the concept of Perfect Posture.
