#1. Tweak your set-up: Make sure you don’t spend hours in the same position by mixing it up – sitting, standing or even squatting is good for the circulation, metabolism, and the back.

#2. Plan ahead: Buy fresh ingredients and prepare them for the week ahead. Homemade snacks that provide slow-release energy – like delicious energy balls – are a smart move.

#3. The power of downtime: Organise your working day with sufficient breaks and stick to them. With a bit more flexibility, you could schedule a quick yoga session or enjoy some sunshine.

#4. Stay social: Try not to spend your break in front of the screen. Unless, of course, you’re meeting friends for an online lunch, in which case you’ll benefit from the social interaction.
