2 practices for preventing office fatigue that you can do immediately.

1. Positioning and posture

Being aware of how we are sitting is very important. If we were standing for these periods of time, we wouldn’t allow ourselves to be hunched over or tilted all the way to one side. The same applies with sitting. Thinking “tall” generally helps to provide a nice neutral spine and alleviate some of these aggravating positions. Our environment can be of use here also. We don’t necessarily need a fancy chair, just some pillows or towels to help mould our current chair to be more comfortable.

2. Move, move, move

Setting a timer to either get up or do some desk based exercises is the most powerful tool we have to help prevent periods of discomfort and pain. Staying in the one position for hours on end (no matter how amazing it looks) is bound to catch up eventually. Our spines are designed to move and that’s what we need to encourage. If it’s been a whole hour and you haven’t moved, it’s been too long!

Hopefully these tips help to keep you as active as possible whilst moving through the day!
