Too much sitting, especially at the computer, can cause our bodies to become stiff, sore and lethargic.  Have you noticed your posture when you sit for hours? Our bodies were designed to move, not sit at a desk for extended periods of time.

Take a stretch break every hour, walk around, gently reach for the sky, do shoulder shrugs, march in place, walk a flight of stairs or go outside for a 5-minute walk.

Taking a stretch break not only improves circulation, it gives your body a break from being in the same position doing repetitive work.

Love, Health & Happiness,

Phyllis
