Please help. When I anchor my hand for fingerstyle, I pull my guitar body in & the neck pushes out making hand position for some chords difficult

When I use the term “Anchor” during descriptions or in the following video I am using this in the way most do to indicate lightly resting or anchoring it’s position but not pressing down hard.

Not a response to this statement, but more of a general “for what it’s worth:” my criticisms of anchoring (i.e., more tension, less mobility, some degree of dampening of the soundboard) also assumes anchoring with light touch, not a forceful one (which would obviously make the drawbacks worse).
