Sit at Your Own Peril

The ill effects of too much sitting are already well documented. A recent report suggests that sitting continuously at the same spot can also affect the mental health of the individuals concerned. In a survey carried out in UK the average time spent by an individual in the sitting posture is around six hours per day. That is considered as too much sitting. Also, it has been found that people who spend time sitting in offices, tend to continue this habit at home-a dangerous trend.
