HEALTHY COMPUTING EMAIL TIP 532: GET ENERGIZED
As we continue to work without interruptions at the computer, we often get tired and drained. Increase your vitality when you move and GET ENERGIZED.
HOW TO GET ENERGIZED:
Stand up, bend your knees slightly, and let your arms hang along your
trunk. Gently bounce your body up and down by bending and straightening
your knees. Allow the whole body to shake and move for about one minute
like a raggedy Ann doll. Then while exhaling bend your knees and reach
downward with your hands to touch your toes. As you inhale, straighten up,
bring your hands and arms upward to chest level, and clap both hands twice
together. Continue bringing your hands and arms upward to the ceiling as
you explosively exhale. Repeat the cycle of movement (reaching toward your
toes and upward to the ceiling) three times. Sit down and observe your
increase in awareness and energy.
Remember to take many movement breaks during the day.
