Posture helps maintain confidence and height. According to HOUSA (Health Organization of USA), slouching-not sitting erect- causes folding of spines and shrinking height. • Make sure you use your mouse with a loose grip, not a FIRM one. • Don't use any of the desks or desktop structure for support for wrists. • Play in a well lighted bright area preferably with a window or fan on for fresh air. • Play with music for brain cell growth promotion. Tips • Take 10 minute breaks each hour, and 1 hour breaks every 3 hours. • Make sure your computer doesn't feel hot or heats up as that can damage it. • Playing on a bed or an area with rug |
