Working too hard? Get some rest with Workrave.

It is true that having your hands on the mouse and keyboard all the time will certainly cause damage on the inner of your wrist tendons, while a bad posture may cause lower back pain and neck discomfort. Workrave is a program that assists in the recovery and prevention of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). The program frequently alerts you to take micro-pauses, rest breaks and restricts you to your daily limit. Although it can be proved vital for those who suffer from RSI, it will certainly be very helpful for everyone who spends a significant amount of daily time in front of his/her computer screen.
