Anaheim Brewery likes to think of itself as a 140-year old company that just opened.

After Prohibition shut down their taps in 1920, a full 90 years passed before the doors opened again. It has picked up where it left off, too, making classic beer served in a relaxed and chatty tasting room. With an emphasis on traditional techniques and quality ingredients, the selection is a solid spectrum of flavor that will satisfy every taste. The tasting room is a great place to sample these wares, and they're happy to sell you a six-pack, growler, or to take home. A true gem of the historic Anaheim Colony, the Anaheim Brewery is bringing the refreshment of classic beer to a grateful and thirsty community. Try some for yourself– you'll agree that it was worth the wait!

Spring is finally here! Wishing you a season of sunshine and warmth.

When you slouch, it restricts your breathing, compresses your organs, and strains your back. If you make a habit of standing and sitting up straight, you will not only be doing your body a favor, but you will instantly look 10 lbs thinner! Here are some easy ways to keep your posture in check.

1: Take a look in the mirror.

Stand with your side facing a mirror, and check out your natural stance, without forcing correct posture. Sometimes a visual reality check is the best incentive to make your posture a priority. If you see that you’re slouching, draw your chin back to align ears over shoulders, and engage your stomach muscles. Correct posture aligns ears over shoulders, shoulders over hips, and hips over knees and ankles.

2: Sit up straight!

When you sit, press your back against the chair, and set up with both feet flat on the floor. Your neck and head should be vertical, and if you’re working on a computer, make sure your computer screen is raised high enough so that your eyes focus just slightly downward.

3: Get rid of bad shoes.

Shoes with higher heels misalign the body, so wear them sparingly, and the same goes for unsupportive flats and sandals. The best shoes provide arch support, have wide toe boxes, and less than one-inch heels.

4: Work it out.

Classes like yoga, tai chi, qigong, all work proper body alignment, and are great for improving your body awareness and posture over time. If you feel you need more individualized assistance, considering arranging an appointment with a physical therapist.

5: Remind yourself…again…and again

Post sticky notes around your home with reminders to sit and stand tall. The more often you’re reminded, the more often you can practice proper posture!
