Once an hour or so, get up from your chair and do a full body stretch. Touch your toes and extend your limbs to their fullest and relax
Look up then down 10 times, repeat for down then up, repeat for left to right, repeat for right to left. Rotate eyes from left all the way around 10 times, repeat rolling from right. If you are at your computer for long period of times, optometrists recommend following the “20-20-20” rule, ie for every 20 minutes spent focusing on your computer screen, spend 20 seconds focusing on something else 20 feet away.
More and often! 15-20 minutes a day of laughter burns 40 calories a day!
Sitting upright take one knee and raise it towards your chest. Hold for up to 20 seconds. Rest and repeat with other knee.
