22 Habits That Harm Your Spine
Stress and depression
Recent scientific research suggests that many of the depressed mental states we suffer from in everyday life can cause excessive tension in the back muscles.

Take your time and pick an activity that’ll make you genuinely happy. Whether it’s dancing, swimming, or running — pick something that lifts your mood!
