More For Less

Have you ever heard of the 80/20 rule? It’s an idea based on the Pareto principle, that 80% of outcomes come from 20% of causes. 

Giving your body a bit of attention everyday will capitalise from this rule. For example, I come home from work, after standing and being physically active the whole day, I then do 10mins of gentle stretching the back and body with slow controlled breathing. 

Some of you may do this type of routine after waking up in the morning. It’s the seemingly small yet, big picture things, like standing and moving after sitting for a while, the changing of the handbag position or the hand hold on the steering wheel, it’s the 20% of consistent, daily practice, which will magnify the benefits by 80% and go a long way to helping avoid any long term neck or back problems, by at least 80%. Become aware and act.
