Turn Sitting Into a Pilates Practice: Mindful posture and breath tips

Your chair can become a Pilates tool. Every time you sit, you can reconnect with posture, breath, and movement.

Try this breathing pattern:

• Inhale through your nose, expanding your ribs.

• Exhale slowly through your mouth, engaging your core.

• Repeat 6–8 breaths.

Let your sitting time become a moment of awareness rather than tension.

Pilates isn’t just something you do on the mat. It’s something you carry into everyday life, even while sitting.
