Not only does moving your body help with physical health, but it also helps with mental health! If you’re looking for a fun way to exercise at home, we suggest trying out a ‘Dance Workout’ video with music from your favourite artists. Lately, we’ve been loving Sharona’s Hill’s videos, as her dance workouts feature music from artists such as Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, and more!

The ’20-20 Rule’ is where every twenty minutes, you take a twenty-second break from looking at your screen and instead, focus your attention on something that is about twenty feet away. This rule reminds you to take a breather, as well as give you a chance to loosen up. On top of that, not only does this reduce stress during a busy day, but it also helps reduce digital eye strain.
