Well, the first day of school is officially over! How did it go? It can get stressful with all the unorganization and chaos, right! Here are a few tips taken from, Fitness Magazine, to keep in mind...
3 actions that can drain your power:
1. Sitting for hours slides your tush down in your chair, forming a C-curve in your back.
2. Hunching over to text, reading the cell phone, looking at computers, and writing on paper pulls your neck out of alignment - a kink that can cause neck pain and fatigue
3. Stress can cause you to breath shallowly, depriving you of oxygen that gives you energy!
3 actions that can act as a pick-me-up:
1. Every hour, stand up, put your hands on the small of your back and gently arch as far as you can for one second, leading with your head. Do this 6-8 times.
2. Placing a thumb on your sternum, make an L by pointing your index finger up. If your chin touches it, move you head back!
3. When tension starts to build, spend a few minutes taking slow, deep breaths and use all your senses to visualize something soothing!
