Tips to Relieve Tech-Stress

Here are a few tips i found on managing tech fatigue. I found them helpful, thought sharing them with you. Here they are

1) Get Fresh Air
Resolve to step out of the balcony for fresh air before checking your mail first thing in the morning. Find ways to engage in entertainment that does not involve a gadget. Watch a live performance, go out for a walk.

2) Meet Friends
Meet people more often in person than on the web,whether they are friends, business clients, or cousins. This will automatically keep you off the technological over-indulgence.

3) Make a chart
Keep a track on what makes you most tired - is it texting on the cellphone or calculating on the desktop? Or overdoing the iPod? Set a time aside from it. Limit yourself to a certain number of texts a day, take atleast a 10 minute break from the office computer every hour. You'll be amazed at the results.

4) Pamper yourself
Get a full body massage, with special attention to your digits and eyes. It soothens the technologically active part of the body.

5) No gadgets at all
Declare one day in the month totally tech-free. Do the math, pick up the pen instead of hitting the keys, sing insteaad if picking the pod.

Hope you all also found them useful the way i did. Comments are welcomed.
