I highly recommend this book to everyone, but especially to musicians, who can spend many hours a day, seated in a practice room or rehearsal hall. Poor sitting posture can do as much or more damage to the spine as any rigorous physical activity! I know this from personal experience and have spent the last ten years attempting to undo the damage with the help of Dr. Mayes. She writes with clarity and humor--the illustrations are very helpful!

A marvelous little book woke me up to the importance of posture: Good Posture Made Easy, by Carrie Mayes. The philosophy behind this 40-page softcover is that proper alignment of your spine through proper posture can improve your health by avoiding the pains and increased work associated with poor posture.

Written in a folksy and compassionate voice, the 8 short chapters offer logical explanations and practical tips. This book hit that sweet spot for me.
