For too long, sitting has been vilified – treated as a necessary evil of modern life that saps our energy, dulls our thinking, and silently erodes our health. We’ve been warned about “sitting disease,” told to stand at every chance, and made to feel guilty for taking a seat.
But what if we’ve misunderstood the opportunity that sitting truly offers?
Sitting Fit shatters the old paradigm. It reveals a powerful truth:
Sitting isn’t the problem. Unskilled sitting is.
When done skillfully, intentionally, and mindfully, sitting transforms from a passive habit into a dynamic, health-enhancing practice. One that strengthens the body, sharpens the mind, boosts mood and energy, improves posture and performance – and yes, even uplifts the spirit.
Rooted in decades of clinical experience and backed by research in biomechanics, neuroscience, ergonomics, and human performance, Sitting Fit delivers a profound but practical shift in how we think about one of the most common activities in our lives. It turns sitting into an accessible daily opportunity for growth, vitality, and evolution.
This is not just a book for individuals.
It’s a movement for everyone who sits – and everyone who influences how we sit:
At its core, Sitting Fit is not just about sitting better – it’s about living better.
It’s about reclaiming the hours we spend seated and turning them into moments of strength, alignment, focus, and vitality. It’s about evolving how we engage with our bodies, our environments, and our potential.
This is not another warning.
This is a wake-up call.
An invitation to reimagine what sitting can be.
To move forward.
To level up.
To sit with intention.
To Sit Fit – and to thrive!
