Finding the perfect mattress can be difficult. Some people like firm mattresses, some like soft mattresses, and some like them in between. Since people often ask me what mattress I sleep on, here’s a 1 year follow-up to the Back Science Mattress I currently sleep on.
When looking for the best mattress for you, the most important thing the mattress should be able to do is keep your spine in proper alignment. Some other things to look for are the mattress’s ability to relieve pressure points, as well as keeping you cool at night. The Back Science mattress has all of these, and some other great features. I even got my Mom one!
The mattress shown in this video is the Back Science Series 3 Mattress with the Back-Flex Level 3 Adjustable Base. Back Science has several other types of mattresses and adjustable bases available.

Writers and Office Workers often get really focused on their work and tend to have a lot of neck and back pain from bad posture at a computer. Their wrists and hands can get tight and over worked as well. These stretches and exercises are not only great for writers, but they are also great for anyone who works at a desk all day.
We squat every day from sitting down in a chair to getting out of bed, or even sitting safely on the toilet, but squats can be a painful task when something hurts, or our muscles are weak. Practicing squats in a reverse order can help strengthen the muscles and work on doing them correctly and safely.
