Short on weights or other workout equipment? Get creative! Use stuff you find around the house for a quick workout like a loaded backpack, a textbook, two blocks of butter, or a toddler. A tip from@zero_dahero. #devlife #wellness #workremote

Try a forward fold, a handstand, or hang upside down on a (sturdy) bar. The new perspective and change in blood flow will help unblock your thinking and help you to feel more alert. A tip from @zero_dahero. #wellness #remotework #devlife

Tripping over your dumbbells can be a really great cue to do a microworkout! Leave out your workout stuff to help remind you to get in some more movement throughout the day. A tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife #wellness

I love working on failed deployments at 2am as much as the next dev, but remember that light from your screens lets your body know it’s time to stay awake. Lower the brightness at night, or avoid screens entirely before bed to get better sleep! A tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife

It can be tough to fit in extra movement throughout the day, so pair it with something else! Do some push ups while you wait for your coffee to brew, or do a burpee for every failed test. A tip from @zero_dahero. #wellness #devlife

It doesn’t even have to be that particular, just move around trying to find different positions that need stretching. Don’t worry about looking silly — nobody can see you! A tip from @zero_dahero. #wellness #devlife

Eloquent Power Joins work with existing Eloquent relationships on your Laravel applications to reduce the amount of code, make code easier to read, and hide any implementation details on how your relationships work. A tip by @luisdalmolin. #Laravel #php kirschbaumdevelopment.com/in…

If your friends are struggling with being remote, do something nice — maybe something to remind them of the office? Send some really bad coffee, a recording of loud tapping on a metal table, or a voicemail of buzzing and oddly frequent coughs. Tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife

Roll your feet on a massage ball under your desk while you’re working. Put some awkward things under your feet and stand on them to flex your foot in interesting ways. Think of your foot like a tortilla, and try to make the world’s strangest enchiladas. A tip from @zero_dahero.

If for no other reason, it’ll force you to get up and walk around a bit to go to the bathroom 😃 A tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife

Take a break from typing and extend and flex your wrists and fingers. Put some weight on your hands in tabletop position, or do some handstands ;-) A tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife

Make a checklist of 3-5 healthy habits you want to do. Every day, write them on a note and put it somewhere annoying, like your screen. Cross them off as you do them, and make a collection of “perfect” (completed) notes to show off to friends. A tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife

A tip from @zero_dahero: Try the Pomodoro technique. It doesn’t have to get too fancy, just work for 25 minutes (do *nothing else*) then take a 5 minute break. I’ve found this technique especially great when I’m lacking motivation, facing a daunting task, or both! #devlife

If your work allows it, try a nonlinear day. Start early and get some work done while nobody is around. Take the extra hours to workout, have breakfast, enjoy family time, etc. You’ll be happier, and more productive for the 2nd half of your day. A tip from @zero_dahero. #devlife

Another wellness tip from @zero_dahero: Stand up. Don’t have a standing desk? Get up and walk around periodically. *Do* have a standing desk? Walk around periodically! Don’t have a desk at all? How are you doing that?! #devlife

A tip from @zero_dahero: We all get bored or hit a roadblock sometimes, and it's easy to fill the space with a quick trip to the kitchen. Before going for a snack, take a moment to check how hungry you actually are on a scale of 1-10. Learn more about mindful eating @headspace.

A working-remotely tip from @zero_dahero: Manage your stress with breathing. Instead of gulping down huge, deep breaths when you’re stressed, focus on a gentle cadence in and out through your nose. Check out @oxygenadvantage for more great tips & info on breathing. #devlife

A working-remotely tip from @zero_dahero: No time for a 40 minute workout? Try eight 5-min workouts! In between calls or after a coffee break, do a “microworkout”: pick a moderate-to-easy exercise (and/or weight) and work just enough to NOT break a sweat. #devlife
