An apparatus for monitoring an individuals posture and identifying incorrect deviations includes a level sensor and a control and data unit attached to the apparatus. The apparatus is worn by a user and may be attached to or included as part of a hat, cap, head band, belt, eyeglasses, sunglasses, garment or article of clothing. The control and data unit records deviations away from a predetermined normal posture of the user in a given period of time and either communicates the deviations to the user in real time for immediate postural correction or records the deviations for later downloading or transmission and analysis. A preferred embodiment of the apparatus includes a cap with LED lights that indicate deviations away from ideal posture that exceed a tolerance limit to the user as they occur.
