physically moving around is the trick.

standing or sitting perfectly still for long periods is terrible for mind and body.

i have a python program on my laptop that is typically running 35 minute sessions. then it locks my computer, requiring password unlock, AND locks the keyboard for 5-10 minutes, making that impossible immediately without a reboot.

so i get up. walk around. space out for a while. think about things. beverage refill. space out more. sit back down. type in password.

when i first started doing it, i’d be furious at times when my computer locked. now it’s as natural as breathing. would recommend.
