Our first topic: Turn Off the Lights

 

Think of this as a shoulder stretching exercise. Hmmm… how flexible are your shoulders? When you turn off the lights, keep your elbow straight and stretch/flex those tight shoulders and rotate your wrists to flip the switch. 

 

It’s a 2-Step process: 

 

1) Use the proper posture 

2) Take a deep breath while switching the lights off knowing your future self will enjoy knowing this newly preserved energy will be applied to overcome future-procrastination.
