Sometimes when we work from home we tend to forget to take care of ourselves. It is very important to continue to keep up decent levels of exercise and maintain a healthy diet.
When you are sitting at the computer all day at home it is very easy to reach out and pick at unhealthy snacks, not realising just what you are doing to your waistline and health.
With this in mind, Paula and I make sure that we get regular exercise at the local ladies only gym. We have been doing lots of stretch and yoga classes so yesterday I decided it was time to up the ante and did the pump class. Well today I am having difficulty walking up and down the stairs. Every step feels like I am being stabbed with a burning knife blade – at least thats how it appears to me.
Having done this many times before, you know what I mean- reach a high level of fitness and then stopping going to the gym for quite some months; I know that in the next day or so I will feel the benefits of this strenuous exercise but at the moment I just want to curl up in a ball with some hazelnut chocolate and make the bad pain go away.
Having said that, it is important to not let the computer take over your life completely. Factor in the breakations and fun times.
A timer is a good tool to have on your desk to remind you of when to take a break, go for a walk or have a healthy snack.
Now where’s that phone book I need to make an appointment for a massage
