Commuting
If you're wearing a groove in the road between home and work, do you have to? If possible, why not:

  • share the commute with a neighbourly colleague.


  • change your route. It's as good as a rest, and there may be (well, it's possible) less traffic.


  • change the time you travel. Leaving home half an hour earlier - or later - can make a big difference to your journey time.
  • Use other forms of transport for a couple of days each week

Long-distance

It's a silent killer, so as soon as you feel tired or dull:
  • stop at the next opportunity.


  • take a brisk walk.


  • eat (avoid sugar, fat, dairy products) a little.


  • drink plenty, but avoid excessive caffeine and sugar. These do produce bursts of energy, but they are quickly followed by sluggishness.
