Stressful deadlines can lead to achy muscles when you're grueling over the keyboard for eight hours a
day. These three easy habits can help relieve stress when you're stuck at your desk.
1. Stretch.
Reach up to the sky, touch your toes or take a deep
breath. Just 15 seconds at each position is enough to
get your blood circulating. Plus, every hour, try to
walk (somewhere, anywhere) to stretch your legs.
2. Eat an afternoon snack.
Peel an orange. The citrusy scent is therapeutic, and
eating it lowers blood pressure. No snack? Chew gum
for greater alertness and a more positive mood.

3. Clean your desk.
