Do you wonder . . . 

 why some people 

stay naturally flexible and strong
into their 80s and 90s—
without stretching or strength training?
There's a clear and simple reason for this.
At age 78, I'm
 lucky beyond measure
to be living it!
 

 Hello ~ I'm Kathleen Porter.

    

For over thirty years, since my life was transformed by learning to inhabit my body
in keeping with its innate design, I've been passionate about helping people reconnect with their body's natural wisdom. 
It's been remarkable to observe how many have found enduring relief from
chronic aches, pains, and certain health challenges.

  

The human body evolved with a brilliantly simple design—
a skeleton organized around gravity's vertical axis.

When properly aligned, your skeleton
(most especially your spine, legs, and weight-bearing joints)
distributes gravitational forces—just like the framing of a house,
except that we are alive and we move.

 

Herein lies the secret to living and moving
with natural strength, relaxed flexibility, enduring vitality,
and comfortable ease.

 

Re-aligning your bones is surprisingly straight-forward —

  I'd love to share with you what I've learned about how this works.

 

 

                               

         Learn key details about natural alignment right now—
       and why it matters so much to the quality of your life
with this
 FREE guide

( You can be reading it minutes from now : )

 

This eye-opening 12-page E-Booklet reveals
innate alignment details that continue to be overlooked,
even by health professionals!

This is the unknown gap in our understanding that no one is talking about
because the integrated wholeness of our skeleton as  
a weight-bearing/distributing architectural structure has gone been unrecognized, while our cultural model of "good posture" is a big departure from what is natural. 

One simple shift in experiencing your skeleton's relationship with gravity
can change how you move through life, introducing you to genuinely solid strength and
comfortable ease that not only defines how you feel today, but
shapes how you will age in the years ahead.

 

 

"Kathleen's work, to me, has been personally transformative."

I am a family physician treating my share of patients with back and neck pain, osteoporosis, and dysfunctional labor . . .  Kathleen Porter's observation of peoples around the world
who retain their natural alignment, relaxation, and movement is a clear window into
the healing of the chronic pain syndromes of our culture.

My wish for you is that you enjoy
the pain-free comfort,
flexible ease, and solid strength
that's waiting to be
discovered within you!

 

By the time I was 47, I was a yoga teacher and massage therapist with a secret:  I struggled with chronic pain issues that my students and clients trusted me to help them resolve. The irony of this was not lost on me, and I struggled with being hypocritical as much as I did with the pain I experienced.

I had the good fortune to learn how to inhabit my body in the naturally aligned way healthy babies and toddlers discover all on their own when figuring out how to sit up, stand, and run full-speed ahead into the world.

Three decades later, as I approach my eighties (🙀), the benefits of natural alignment—we're talking about aligned bones here—are clearly evident, without me needing to stretch or "exercise," other than living a modestly active life that involves walking, puttering in the garden, playing with my grandchildren, and applying alignment principles to how I move throughout the day.

Do I forget and lose my center? Yes, I do! We're not talking perfection here, although as you do this, you'll stray far less often and self-correct more easily. Only people who never lost what they first learned as babies and young children don't ever have to think about this—it's simply who they are—always.

I've also become more authentically flexible since I stopped stretching years ago, and now that I've cracked the "alignment code" within myself, it's easy to tune into an always available flow of energy moving through my body. I just have to turn it on now and then.

I highly recommend this!

Sorry to say . . . 

Natural Posture for Pain-Free Living is now only printed by its publisher in black and white. Sadly, this has diminished the impact of the many beautiful and instructive color photographs and illustrations. 
                                         

      I recommend:

  • The Kindle version viewed on a color screen (iPad or computer) if possible; or
  • A used copy of the original color print edition via online bookstore; or
  • The B&W printed edition, which is still far better than not reading this book at all ; )

 The Little Cushion that Does Big Things

 

Small enough to take along in your bag, The Wedge can be used in almost every sitting situation—in a chair, on the floor, in your car,
at a ball game, at the movies, on a plane—and, of course, while
working at a computer.

Filled with recycled rubber sand (regular Wedges) or buckwheat hulls
(our more light-weight Travel Wedges), these nifty cushions help keep your pelvis parked at its optimal natural angle for comfortable sitting.

A Wedge also makes a perfect gift for anyone who sits.  🤣
