To all of you who spend your days glued to a screen, I have a whole new appreciation and compassion for your plight. In my own struggles and setbacks with this lifestyle, I've discovered things that have proven to be great lifesavers:
1. Workout first thing in the morning. Screen time drains you so much, and you end up to too exhausted at the end of the day to put it off any longer.
2. Hydrate hydrate hydrate! Can’t stress this enough. Not drinking enough water throughout the day can end in total mind fog.
3. Stand up every 30 minutes and walk around the office. Use headphones whenever you take a call and use this time to do a few laps. Not only does working standing up not overtax the brain, it has the added benefit of burning 80-100 calories an hour, improving blood flow, alleviating back pain, strengthening muscles, and actually boosting productivity.
4. Take regular 5 to 10 minutes breaks to snack on healthy food. Not only will this stop you from over eating but will also stop cravings which in turn will help you keep those few extra pounds at bay.
Do any of you have any additional game-changing tips?
