Whenever you drift towards behavior that's not supporting your health and fitness, you must take an action immediately. It's not as important what you do as long as it involves a different movement, activity, or shift in energy. While some people can simply begin to sit up straight and breathe more deeply to change their energy, many of us need more movement to instigate a change of our personal state of being. Try taking a very brisk walk around the office, or around the block. Tackle a flight of stairs and go up and down a few times. If you're not in a public place, do some deep stretching or some rapid movements like jumping jacks. At home, wash a few dishes, dust a very high shelf or water the plants. At work, rearrange a bookshelf, stand while you rapidly de-clutter your desk or restock your paper supply (from the supply room). Hope this is helpful!

It's strange, but it's really helpful! I love this post! Thanks!
