After some long nights either performing work tasks or going to local meetups I try to take a nap on the train when I commute back to work. Sometimes during my breaks I do some breathing exercises using my Apple Watch.
But, now that I am using meal replacements the actual time that I take to eat lunch and or breakfast goes from 15 minutes to nearly 1-5 minutes which I spend preparing the meal replacement and ingesting it. Since I now have 25 minutes left and I typically eat at around 11am when most people eat around 1pm I have actually started either meditating or doing nothing.
Going on for other ergonomics that should be done during work and or mental tasks remember to check that your workspace is paired with a good chair and that your monitor is at eye level and your mouse and keyboard or other input devices don't require you to reach.
Another thing that is handy is rewarding yourself for a task not necessarily with food but with some form of exercise. After I complete a task using a computer I typically take a victory lap. This seems to actually cause positive reinforcement by rewarding myself with that victory lap. I know that dog trainers will use a toy instead of food to reward their dogs. It also will help your ergonomics and could help with back problems. I find that walking and or doing planking removes back pain for me (I'm 31).
