New year, same pandemic. What started as a few weeks in lockdown is nearing its one-year anniversary, but that doesn t mean our working-from-home habits have gotten any better. Make your resolution to take it easier on your body and brain with these expert-approved tweaks that will help keep you in good shape for the unforeseeable future.

With your computer monitor arms-length in front of you and your elbows near your side, rest your wrists on your keyboard in a neutral position to lessen chances of getting carpal tunnel overtime.
