Who says kids are the only one’s who can wear backpacks? I like the freedom and flexibility that comes from the evenly distributed weight on both my shoulders and bonus I am hands free!!

I have worn a back back purse for as long as I can remember. As a college student I literally used a back pack but then I became a real adult and tried real adult things like using a purse. Even before I was a mom I thought it made me feel like a mom to use a shoulder purse. Who came up with that design anyway? I have a double curve to my spine ( scoliosis). This makes any kind of off balance to my shoulders ( like wearing a one shoulder purse) put pressure on all the wrong spots. Inevitably that off balance leads to shoulder pain, neck pain, hip pain, knee pain then foot pain. Every freakin thing is connected!
So, I started using smaller backpacks instead of a purse. They can be found in the women’s fashion department right with the purses. I prefer a smaller style vs a full on back pack. They come in every shape and size and price range depending on the material.
Once I had kiddos I got asked all the time by other moms about this “trend”. It was so easy to push a stroller or chase them around the playground hands free.
When I started doing personal assessments and really evaluating how seniors used their homes and communities it became obvious that seniors have places to go and things to do. Even if a cane or walker is being used that is not stopping them from getting all the stuff done.
reflect
Think about someone that you know that has a cane or walker. Think about yourself using a purse in your everyday activities like pushing a grocery cart. The next time you have a lot of errands to do think about how your neck and shoulder feel. How many surfaces is your purse touching from store to store?
action
So grab yourself, your granny or sister up a cute back pack today and experience the difference for yourself. If nothing else you can be closer to your love when walking and holding hands without the purse in the way.
more freedom, more love and less pain = no brainer.
