A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You're pushing too hard. You should breathe through it, don't hold your breath. Look into getting a step for your feet. We're designed to squat, not sit, and getting your feet higher can get things to line up better internally
Relevant
I just squat on the toilet seat straight up, if I'm at home. It helps, it really does, I swear by squatting
At work they had to put signs up to tell all the Indian workers who came to the UK not to do this as they were always breaking the loo seats! Better to get a step for your feet and get those angles better aligned.
Interesting, I've done it my whole life and have never broken anything, but I also weigh about 115 pounds, so my method is not for everyone, haha.
