How to Adjust Your Posture

1484

“How young maidens ought not to turn their heads thoughtlessly here and there. Daughters, don’t be like the tortoise or the crane, which turn their faces and their heads above their shoulders, winding their heads here and there like a weathervane. Instead, hold yourselves steadfast like the hare, a beast that always looks in front of him without turning his head all about. Always look directly in front of you and if you must look to the side, turn your face and your body together, holding yourself firm and sure, for those who frivolously cast their eyes about and turn their faces here and there are mocked.”

Geoffrey de la Tour Landry, The Book of the Knight of the Tower

Turning your whole body rather than just your head will give the impression that you are either trustworthy or suffering from a neck injury.
