• Be physically active. Take the stairs, not the lift. Take a short walk, post lunch. Take short ‘work-out’ breaks. Get off the bus/auto a couple of stops earlier, and walk the rest of the way.
• Take up a sport/fitness activity, at least during the weekend.
• Discuss your fitness activity with colleagues, and help others who want to pursue an activity too.
• Organize office-bonding activities around sports such as athletics, a football match or a Sunday cycling event.
• Say ‘NO’ to tobacco.
• Relax by doing deep breathing exercises or pranayama. The risk of coronary heart disease will be halved within a year and eventually be eliminated altogether.
The theme is being expressed by Ms. Hema Vijay in a daily news paper.
It is WORLD HEART DAY on September 27 with the theme “WORK WITH HEART”. One can incorporate work-outs into office hours.
