Times are changing and many of us now find ourselves working from home.  Wearing sweats all day and no commute is great but what’s not so great are the lasting health effects of long hours of inactivity.⁠
⁠
Sitting in front of a computer for extended hours can not only wreak havoc on your body, it can also set you up for increased blood pressure, obesity and higher risk of death.⁠
⁠
Try these tips if you find yourself sitting more:⁠
⁠
💻Set a timer to schedule movement breaks every hour – make sure whatever it is you choose do is active enough to get your heart rate up.  You may even find that your productivity increases too.⁠
⁠
💻Revamp your work space as much as possible – make sure you have a comfortable chair that is the right height and keep an eye on your posture (no slouching). ⁠
⁠
💻Stretch – when sitting we tend to round our shoulders and let our heads drop forward, working at a computer strains our wrists and prolonged sitting shortens our hip flexors.  Try stretches that will counter act these positions.⁠
⁠
💻Eat mindfully and avoid grazing - stick to whole, nutritious foods and stay clear of processed snack foods. ⁠
