I would have thought that poor mental posturing has more to do about how you process new information. "Thinking on your toes" - that sort of stuff.. Poor Postures are brooding/wallowing/overreacting.

1/ Your awareness has a shape and size. These are malleable and, for most people, totally unconscious. But they can be brought under your conscious control – that's one of the games behind Alexander Technique.
