Screen at Eye Level for Alertness
Set your laptop, monitor, tablet, or reading material at roughly eye level or slightly above, using books, a stand, or other simple props if needed. This keeps your posture more upright and can help you feel more awake, focused, and alert during work or study.

“Contrary to what most people do, which is to look down at their laptop, tablet, or phone if you want to be alert and you want to maintain the maximum amount of focus for whatever it is that you're reading or doing you want that screen or whatever it is that you're looking at to at least be at eye level and ideally slightly above it.”
