Before you know it, hours have passed and you\u2019re burning the midnight oil. When you do finally arise, bleary-eyed and aching, it\u2019s because your physical or mental needs (hunger, fatigue, overexertion or physical discomfort) take precedence over your creative drive.\n\nNow that we are all sheltering at home, the physical discomfort is often compounded. It\u2019s all well and good to fix up your creative workspace when you actually have a spare office and the cash flow to invest in ergonomic equipment, but what about those of us who are creating from our bedrooms, couches or dining room tables?\n\nWe consulted with Dr. Bryan Lang from Whole Body Health Physical Therapy<\/a>, and ergonomist, Serafine Lilien, MS from ErgoArts<\/a>, to see if they could share some expert advice to improve our workspaces and health, with just a few simple adjustments and items that we already have in our homes.\n\nSerafine got into the field of ergonomics in order to help people and do preventative work, after being a graphic designer who had developed a repetitive strain injury in her right hand, wrist and forearm from mousing for the majority of her day. She has a passion to keep people able bodied and injury free.\n
