“About every 20 minutes, stand up and move your body. Consider doing a quick dance to a favorite song or taking a walk around the block (don’t forget to wear your face covering and stay six feet from people outside your household). “It will feel silly, yet actively moving is one of the quickest energizers,” said Harvey. Stretching and moving will also relax those muscles that you tense constantly when working at a desk, he added.”
