A Medical Warning Label

While helpful for getting work done,
sitting may cause strong allergic reactions.
Reaction may worsen if sitting is combined
with staring into a screen and writing emails.

Pay attention to worsening side effects from 
continued use. While side effects may seem minor 
they can become incapacitating 
or in extreme cases, even fatal if ignored.

If you notice your body, mind, or soul
becoming itchy, irritated, achy, angry and/or
hopeless— immediately discontinue use: 
Stand up and go outside. 

Outside air (even hot, sticky air) 
and starlight (day or night) have both 
proven effective at reducing the symptoms 
of allergic responses from excessive sitting.
