Decompress at work

Need to decompress at work? Try these stress-reducing strategies:

• Exercise
  At break time, take a five- to 10-minute walk around the block or office.
• Take a deep breath
  Slow, deep breathing brings more oxygen into your body, relaxed your muscles and slows your heart rate.
• Get away from it all
  Find a place in the building where you can escape when necessary.
• Check your posture
  Sit up straight and press your lower back against your chair.
• Stand for awhile
  Sitting for hours stresses your back, thighs, neck and other muscles.
