1. Go Walking
Did you know walking for even 10 minutes after 3 hours at your desk can lift your mood by 40%?! If the weather is nice outside, you can just step outside and walk around the block or to the nearest park. Walking will not only make you live longer, but also give you more energy throughout the day. I highly recommend going out for a walk after lunch, and then once in the afternoon to break up the day.

2. Listen to Music
The best part about music is that when you listen to it, you will start relating yourself to the lyrics of the song, and make you feel on “top of the world”. The beats of music will help enhancing your mood and relaxing your muscles. So put on a headphone and start listening to your favorite beats.

6. Browse the Internet
Take a break from your usual work, and just head over to a stock photography site to look at pleasant photos of nature. Google has a Art Project site that features the best art collection. My personal favorites are these sites: Cuteoverload, The Thoughts Room.
7. Yoga
Yoga and breathing exercise are the best technique to de-stress. Check out this video to learn how you can change your mood for good.

What do Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison all have in common? They all made important contributions to the advancement of mankind, and they were all avid power nappers. A power nap of 15 – 20 minutes can do wonder to your health and helps you to focus on your work. It recharges your body and mind to a more successful and productive day.
9. Smile
Just smile and you will feel the difference!
