Try these ‘movement snacks’ to spice up your work-from-home routine.
Tips: Pick a movement from the menu and perform for one minute (or more) at the top of every hour … There’s no magic to these specific movements and there’s no need to get crazy about technique . You can do all 8, the same one every time, or a new one each hour.
The benefits from these movements come from the intentional actof moving, breathing and allowing your mind , body and brain a break from the monotony of the work day. You may find it helpful to set an alarm on your phone as a reminder.
