    I love the use of the pillow! Definitely need to add in more back extensions and twisting so the suggestion of a timer is such a good idea!!

    ❤️ love these tips and the decor and colors 😬. So easy and simple to use a pillow or a few .Great reminder to not stand all the time.
    I get up every 30 - 40 mins and stretch , go up and down the stairs.

    I never thought about getting down on the floor and sitting while working on the computer. I had just started using a desk riser to stand at work the week before they sent us home to work. I didn't get to bring it home but now I am using my kitchen bar to to place my monitor on so I can stand at times. Guess I'll move my monitor to a lower table so I can try sitting on the floor. Thank you Jen for doing this!!

    Since we are working from home during the quarantine, I've really been missing my sit/stand desk. I LOVE the hip stretch in the couch. I know my husband is going to ask me what the heck I'm doing but I'm going to do it. Thanks fo the info

    Super important for me, when I’m working, I’m a nail technician. I have a $300.00 chair that supports my back and moves with me and I still have low back pain.😩
    I can’t wait for tomorrow’s session.

    Thank you! I plan to show my husband since he is the one who is working from home while I am with the kids. Great tips for when I knit! Since I started your challenge, I’ve been trying to be more mindful how I sit when I am knitting or watching tv. :)

    YAAAAS! 🙌 "The best posture is the next posture" I loved listening in on this educational tidbit. And I love the prone posture/stretch! Will definitely need to try that one.

    I've been working from home for three weeks now, and I've figured out a great floor-sitting set up. I love having the freedom of moving around constantly. My work has actually asked us NOT to do video meetings, but just audio (to save bandwidth), so meetings suddenly become a great opportunity to do some stretching and mobility. I love how you use the pillows, though....I'm definitely going to add that in to what I'm already doing!

  • @infinitehealth1

    Super woman is right! Swooping in with the tips we are all in need of right now. Thanks for inspiring us to keep moving- even when we aren't doing exercise, but working on a computer. Great creative ideas to take advantage of working from home like laying stomach down on the couch! Thanks Jen for the very relevant education :)

    I use a million different props when I work from home and I try to move around as much as I can. I’m at the table with pillows, laptop on a bin to prop it up; I have a separate keyboard and mouse, I’m rolling on the floor with my tune up balls, I use my husband’s tall dresser as a stand up desk (I can roll my feet/do calf raises or stand on a foam roller to get just a little bit higher).
    Thanks for all the great tips I really appreciate it:)

    I have set my work station on a bench. I have my yoga mat abutting it. I have made a seat with 2 yoga blocks. I use a small roller to support my loosely crossed legs. My screen is a tiny bit low but everything else is perfect and I can easily stretch whole set-up like this. Look hilarious? Yes! Do I care? Nope. Thanks!

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  4 года назад

      Oh yay! Again, watching the positions of the neck. You don't want it to go forward and down for too long. And want to address the breath! So if you spend time on the ground, mix up the head positions, make sure the shoulders are relaxed and address where you're breathing from!
