        Tips for working on your Computer/ Mobile Device

        1. Sit into your sit bones which allows your pelvis to gently rock forward and backward easily.

        2. Move your upper body weight into the legs in such a way that the upper body is supported without using arms and hands for balance, so they can be free. A light upper body is a choice you have!


        3. Have light, movable arms and extended fingers.

        4. Have a soft and elongated neck.

        5. If you tense your lower back  --just notice that you are doing it -- and decide to stop it by softening the neck muscles and elongating along the spine. Allow your back to fill out with breath.

        6. Allow lightness around the shoulder girdle.

        7. Make your eyes soft when looking at the screen.

        8. Be aware at all times of the space where your body ends and the screen of your Computer or mobile device begins. Allow that space to exist!

        9. Refresh the interface between key, eye and screen often.

        Get up and stretch! Think about solutions moving around, not sitting down.
