  2. Wellbeing at Work 1. Be aware of your posture. • Slowly realign your head - imagine that your head is a teacup balancing on your neck (the saucer!). Keep your head and neck erect and chin tucked. • Lower your chair to lessen the need to look down at your screen. • Pull your shoulders back into a military posture and then relax them forward slightly. Relax your shoulders!!

To get the best results: • Exercise and take short breaks frequently • Exercise is one of the best ways you can improve your posture. • Include a variety of movements in your workday. • It's important to take shorter (even 15 seconds) breaks more frequently rather than one longer break. • Remember, movement is necessary for health and comfort. Simply standing up and taking a deep breath each hour will improve your comfort and health. 3. Take a walk • Go for a short walk in your lunch break or just go outside for fresh air.
