4. Sitting- sit in a chair where you sit straight up
Excellant suggestions, it is worth the $ for good shoes with ones' aching body like this and #3

plus, exercise your joints ... since i am tall and fluffy - i go to aqua size and after i sit in the sauna for a bit. ahhh ... relief ... alas, arizonia ... pain free ...
