Posture for a Healthy Back
"'Posture is the position in which you hold your body upright against gravity while standing, sitting or lying down. Good posture involves training your body to stand, walk, sit and lie in positions where the least strain is placed on supporting muscles and ligaments during movement or weight-bearing activities." This site provides illustrated descriptions of good posture for standing, stooping, squatting, kneeling, sitting, driving, lifting, and sleeping. From the Cleveland Clinic.
