Sit on ab exercise ball

While sitting in meetings or at your desk trade in your chair for an exercise ball. This will force your stabilizing muscles to remain active and help keep you alert. When we sit in a chair we have a tendency to relax, which in turn can make our mind wander. By sitting on an exercise ball you are forcing your body to work which in turn will keep you more alert.
