Ten ways to make your computing experience more comfortable

   

1.

Find a comfortable chair with good back support. Sit up, don't slouch . Mom used to say! After using
  computers for 25 years computers, I now know why she said that. Find a comfortable chair with good back
  support. Sit up, don't slouch . Find a good ergonomic chair.(Saves your lower back)
   

2.

Make sure your monitor is at eye level. (Less strain on your eyes)
   

3.

Take a 15 minute break from the computer every hour and stretch. (Saves your eyes and flexes those
  muscles that you need to be used outside of the computing world
   

4.

Are your wrists resting on the top of your computer desk or table?
  Try using a couple pairs of double length athletic wrists bands. In 9 years since I've used wrist bands, my
  wrists have only hurt twice and that was after using other peoples computer (i.e. I didn't have wrist bands). I use 3.
   

5.

Place your feet firmly on the ground. Do not cross your legs or pull your feet back so only your toes are on
  the ground. This reduces the possibility of knee and toe problems from hours of computing.
   

6.

Look away from the monitor frequently just to change your visual focus. ( Helps your eyes). Cubs games on
  TV are great for this.
   

7.

A great game or fascinating web pages can cause one to hunch one's shoulders causing neck and shoulder pain.
  refer back to point #1.Sit up straight.
   

8.

Chair doesn't have comfortable armrests ? After years of not using them my arms and forearms ached for
  them. I broke down and bought a new chair. If your chair has wooden armrests cover them with towels or
  padding and fasten them down. (Your arms and forearms will never complain again)
   

9.

Can you see glare on your screen? Move your light source or if it can't be moved move your computer.
  (You can't use a computer if you can't see the screen).
   

10.

To reduce stress. BACKUP FREQUENTLY!
   
 

I hope these tips help you and make your computing experience more enjoyable.
