And who is at home with their children? We want to give you 3 tips that will help you to stay focused not only by sitting at your desk 24 hours a day but also by focusing on breaks and movement.

Pay attention to your posture

If in the office it is easier to interrupt work to have a chat with your colleague, working at home this is certainly more difficult. That's why when we are in front of our computer sitting in our favourite chair in the house, you need to keep your back straight, relax your shoulders and be careful not to bend your neck. Your legs also need to be positioned correctly, so put your feet on the floor at a 90 degree angle with the floor.

The importance of the eyes

Great is the risk of sitting in front of your computer screen all day long. For this reason, you need to adjust your vision so as not to strain your eyes further. Your computer must be positioned at eye level and the distance between you and your monitor must be at least 50-80 cm.

Move, move and move

To take breaks, good "excuses" can be small domestic chores, such as loading the washing machine, picking up the mail, tidying up the bedroom etc.  Treat yourself if you can at least 30 minutes a day of gymnastics, the internet is a world full of ideas where you will find countless video workouts that you can do quietly from home. Get a big enough space and get going!
