Take eye-breaks every 10 minutes by looking away from the screen into the distance. Don’t forget to blink your eyes!
If you have problems reading the text, increase the size of your text instead of leaning over to read what is written.

Working and Relaxing
RELAX!!! your shoulders and hands while working.
Take a small walk or stretching-break preferably every hour.
If you don’t use the mouse or if you are not typing, relax your hands in your lap.

Mouse
Move your mouse with your whole arm, don’t just wiggle with your wrist.
Don’t squeeze the mouse but hold it lightly and place it close to the keyboard so you don’t have to reach to use it.

Typing
Do not hit the keys as if you are hammering them, touch them lightly.

Taking Breaks
Don’t use the computer for too many hours in a row!
Listen to the signals your body is sending!
Pain should not be ignored but should be taken seriously in order to prevent possible damage.
