Beat the Afternoon Slump
Do you suffer from the dreaded post-lunch slump? According to Alexander Technique Teacher Susanna Scouller it's your body's way of telling you that you need a break. Try this quick technique at your desk to protect yourself from musculoskeletal pain and give you more energy: take your eyes away from the computer screen, put your arms down loosely by your side, ensure that you are sitting well supported on your sitting bones, the two bony bits under your bottom. Think of your neck aligning with your spine and your spine lengthening.
