Do you know you could actually function well without your regular caffeine fix in the morning? Most people seem to think they can't be productive or alert without gulping down coffee every minute, however, this caffeine addiction can be broken quite easily if you are willing to try out other ways of being alert and productive all through the day without reaching for a coffee refill.
Stand up to wake up
Sitting for hours at your desk could induce sleep and make you feel fatigued. Therefore, it's essential you stay on your feet frequently to keep yourself awake and alert, alternating between sitting and standing also keeps your metabolism active besides there are lots of health risks attached to staying stagnant in a sitting position for long periods of time.
Drink water
Keep a bottle of water in hand and take frequent gulps of water to keep your body hydrated. Constant breaks to slosh down water and also relieve your bladder when it's filled up gives you a much-needed relief from work.
Turn up the music
Grab your headphones and tune in to your favorite music album the next time you feel drowsy at work. While you sing along or tap your feet to the beat of the song your body, your brain gets stimulated; this makes you stay awake and you also get a surge of energy.
Socialize
If you've been working all by yourself, boredom could easily set in making you feel drowsy and less than active. Engaging in easy conversation with a coworker could help you wake up your mind and distract you away from the thought of nodding off.
