Active Sitting
Active sitting is sitting on an unstable surface to help improve posture and strengthen core muscles. This can help relieve back pain and other issues from prolonged sitting. Active sitting became popular when people started using a Swiss ball or stability ball to sit on, but now there are a variety of chairs that do the same thing in a safer way.

Yoga at bedtime can help you fall asleep faster and sleep better. Trudy, a registered yoga teacher and fellow Physical Therapist, stops by to show me a therapeutic yoga bedtime routine.
