How To Keep Good Posture When In Front Of A Computer

 
"We spend a large portion of our lives sitting, especially during the computer age, so it's important to learn to sit tall. One of the most common mistakes we make is that when we move into a sitting position, we tend to aim for the center of the chair. The proper method is to sit deep in your chair."
- Dr. Marvin Arnsdorff
 
Today we are spending more time at computers, an activity through which people's bad posture can affect their overall health.
 
Posture ranks at the top of the list when talking about good health. It is as important as eating right, excersisng, getting a good night sleep and avoiding harmful substances. Unnatural alignment of the body can cause head, shoulder, neck and back pain, and compromise neurological, digestive, respiratory and cardiovascular functioning.
 
Unquestionably, students and adults alike spend more time at computers today than 20 years ago. So here are nine tips designed to help people's posture when they're at the computer at home, school or work:
 
1. Support Your Back
Does the chair you are sitting on have enough lumbar support? The backrest should fit into the natural curve of your lower back, filling in the space between your back and the back of the chair. This helps avoid excess pressure on the spine and makes it easier to maintain good sitting posture.
Adequate lumbar support also helps prevent muscle fatigue, which causes many people to lean their heads and upper backs too far forward or to slouch downward. With good lower back support, spinal muscles are relaxed and the spine is able to maintain its neutral position.
2. Comfortable Leg Postures
To promote comfortable leg postures, consider clearing away items from your legs to allow comfortable leg positions and movement. Feet should be flat on the floor or you may use a footrest if your feet do not rest comfortably.
 
3. Minimize Reaching
Position work station components to minimize reaching and twisting. Keep frequently accessed objects as close as possible to body centre.
 
4. Comfortable Shoulder and Arm Postures
Place your keyboard and mouse or trackball at the same height; these should be at about elbow level. Your upper arms should fall relaxed at your sides.
Also when typing, center your keyboard in front of you with your mouse or trackball located close to it.
5. Wrist and Finger Postures
Keep your wrists straight while typing and while using a mouse or trackball. Avoid bending your wrists up, down, or to the sides. Use the keyboard legs if they help you maintain a comfortable and straight wrist position. Type with your hands and wrists floating above the keyboard, so that you can use your whole arm to reach for distant keys instead of stretching your fingers.
Make sure you keep your fingers relaxed while typing and using a mouse. Use a soft touch on the keyboard instead of pounding keys with unnecessary force.
 
Also grasp the mouse gently and avoid holding a pen or anything else in your hands while you type or use the mouse. You should relax your fingers and hands between bursts of typing or mousing using a flat, straight wrist posture.
 
When moving your mouse, you may be more comfortable if you use your arm, not just your wrist. Choose a mouse that fits the size of your hand comfortably and is as flat as possible to minimize wrist strain.
6. Minimize Neck Bending and Twisting
Center your monitor in front of you. Consider placing your documents directly in front of you and the monitor slightly to the side, if you refer to your documents more frequently than your monitor.
Sit comfortably in the chair. Close both eyes and relax. Then, slowly reopen them. Where the gaze initially focuses should be when the eyes open is the place to put the center of the computer screen. The screen can be raised using books or a stand if needed.
7. Minimize Eyestrain
Place your monitor at a distance of about arm's length when seated comfortably in front of the monitor. Also avoid glare. Place your monitor away from light sources that produce glare, or use window blinds to control light levels. Don't forget to adjust your monitor brightness, contrast, and font size to levels that are comfortable for you.
Throughout the day, give your eyes a break by forcing them to focus on something other than on your screen. Try the following exercise: Hold a finger a few inches in front of your face; focus on the finger as you slowly move it away; focus on something far in the distance and then back to the finger; slowly bring the finger back toward your face. Next, shift your focus to something farther than eight feet away and hold your eyes there for a few seconds. Repeat this exercise three times, several times a day.
8. Take Short Breaks
Taking breaks can help your body recover from any activity. The length and frequency of breaks that are right for you depend on the type of work you are doing. Stopping the activity and relaxing is one way to take a break, but there are other ways, also. For example, just changing tasks - perhaps from sitting while typing to standing while talking on the phone can help some muscles relax while others remain productive.
 
9. Periodically Look Up At the Ceiling to Give Your Posture Muscles a Break
So, improve your sitting posture and remember, a healthy lifestyle can help you perform and enjoy your everyday activities, including the time spent at your computer. Learning more about working comfortably and productively, as well as your overall health, are important ways to help you enjoy your computing experience.

The 12 commandments of nutrition

 

v      Add more plant foods, fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to boost your protection from disease.
v      Choose dark green salad leaves - the darker, the more nutritious.
v      Add beans to soups and salads - they are high in fibre and protein.
v      In place of butter or margarine in cooking, try olive oil as it contains more mono-saturated fat than saturated.
v      Eat fewer processed or packaged foods. No crackers or cookies as they contain hydrogenated or partly hydrogenated oils (that reads fatty acids).
v      Cook at home more - that way you have all the say in what you eat.
v      Keep healthy snacks at hand. So, whenever you feel hungry, instead of reaching out for that potato chip, you might as well eat a rice cake, whole grain cereal, a fruit, or vegetable.
v      Avoid charring grilled foods. Remove visible fat before cooking to minimize flare-ups and the formation of potential carcinogens (cancer causing substances).
v      When shopping, use the food labels to make smart choices. Check the serving size first to learn the calories and nutrient amounts.
v      Eat three square meals a day. Never skip your breakfast boost. Eat a protein-rich lunch to keep you going. Eat light at night.
v      Order restaurant food, prepared the way you want it. For example, broiled fish instead of fried.
v      If you are trying to control your weight, don't deprive yourself. You can still eat your high-calorie favorites, as long as they are less often and in smaller portions.

Seems to be real, read full story it is the incident of Gachibowli

Hi all,
This is not a forward. This is a fact happened to my friend and I just
wanted to share with you all so that you will all be careful about
yourselves... Please don't think like some one has sent me this mail and I
am forwarding that.It's me (Swetha) sending this mail on behalf of my very
best friend. Please don't ask for name; I don't want to mention that. 
  
On March 13th 2008 my friend had to come from Kothaguda to Mehdpatnam. It
was around 9:30 P.M. She was waiting for bus in the Kothaguda bus stop. As
she dint find any bus coming, she thought of going in share auto (4 seater)
till Gachibowli. She saw one auto coming. In that auto there was one person
sitting with driver. After that another person asked driver whether it goes
to Gachibowli or not. As the driver told it will go, then that guy got  into
that auto... My friend saw all these and she also got into the auto.Auto
started... And in each and every stop that driver is asking for people
telling "Gachibowli.. Gachibowli..." One more guy got into the auto in the
next stop. I guess you all know JayaBheri Silicon Valley. At that place
there is a road towards IIIT. That auto driver turned the auto into that
route. My friend asked him "Bhayya. kyoo aisa jaarey.seeda ja sakthey
na.(Brother, why are you going in this way. go in the straight
route..)".Then auto driver replied like "no madam.there is a short cut."
After moving few yards he turned to left, where there is no proper road way
at least.The guy sitting with my friend shouted telling "Don't you know the
routes.Naya Hai ka Hyderabad ko (Are you new to Hyd) . Then the driver dint
reply anything. and in one lonely place he stopped the auto. The guy who got
into the auto in the next stop got down and came to the other side of the
auto where my friend is  sitting and he pushed her inside and closed her
mouth. and the other guy sitting beside her hold her hands. the person
sitting in the front grabbed her gold chain. Gold chain was little strong
and as he continuously pulling that she got rashes on her neck and it
started bleeding. auto driver pulled her hand bag. which contains one
mobile, 7500/- cash and many more things. they took her finger ring also.
When she started shouting, that driver told, "Kya rape karna hai kya. kyue
chillarey. rape karkey fake dunga." she was trying to put her leg outside
and tried to show her leg, so that if one sees that they can save her. but
no one came there. finally after taking all the things they  throwed her
outside telling "Sorry madam. paisa ka inthejaam mein." 
  
She is alone and with out a single rupee in her hand. she walked towards
road. she found some tents where the construction people stay. She explained
the complete story with one family and she asked  for help. Luckily they are
good enough to help her and they came with her and dropped her in her house.
And they explained like "This place is called as MASJID BANDA and these
things happen here frequently. you are lucky that they dint do anything for
you. Usually these auto drivers will rape the girls, Kill them and they
trough them in Durgamcheruvu." 
  
This is not either MUMBAI or BANGLORE. Now this is in Hyderabad. Please
don't stay in office or any place after 7:30. No one will be responsible if
something happens to us. Be careful. I just wanted to warn you all. Thanks
for sparing time to read this. 
  
And one more thing is no one of us are strong enough to drop a police
complaint on these idiots being in the scare of future problems. these
fellows are roaming outside without any fear... Please take care.Remember
that you are responsible for yourself. 


Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.
