I tend to stoop a little when standing or walking. This is obviously not a good thing to do. Are there any practical tips on how to improve the posture while standing and walking in order to straighten the back and keep the neck neutral.

I too tend to bend a bit while walking. Need to be more aware of my posture while walking and sitting.

Looks like a common problem that happens unconsciously

I stand straight and breathe and be it that way for maybe fifteen minutes and sit down.

That sounds like a good way of training yourself.

You have to be conscious of it. I dont have very good back. I do a little yoga now and then.

I am bad at it because have the habit to browse phone while in bad posture but I guess we need to exercise and that can work

The bent neck while looking at phone is extremely bad.
