Picture source: fitness.com How many times have you felt really tired and worn out at work? An easy solution to that is to do some simple stretches.. Don’t worry these stretches are not going to look odd to your co-workers!
If your work involves sitting in front of a computer screen, the first thing which you should do every 2-3 hours is eye relaxation exercise. Close your eyes and move your eye balls up and down (3 times) then side to side (3 times). Once you do that, rotate the eye balls in clockwise direction (5 times) and then in anti-clockwise direction (5 times).
To relax your shoulder, hold one arm straight in front of you. Then use your other hand to bring the stretched arm to the opposite shoulder.
To loosen your chest, top of shoulder and lower arms, try this:
Make circles (clockwise and anti-clockwise) with your ankles and wrists.
Stand up, bend forward and try to touch your toes without bending your knees. If that is difficult for you, give a slight bend at your knees.
You can also do the same stretch seated.
To relax your neck muscles, move your neck very slowly up and down (3 times) and side to side (3 times). Then very carefully rotate your neck clockwise and then anticlockwise 3 times each.
This 10 minutes that you spend on relaxing your muscles will help you loosen up and feel better!
