What we think about ourselves is reflected in our movements & expressions. Our posture gives a true indication to our inner thoughts & feelings.
Physical changes lead to an improved self image. Addressing the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual issues, creates the best possible environment for long term change. Motivational Kinesiology is a powerful tool for identifying and correcting these limitations.
Some postural indicators of emotional or mental states include:
