Top three ways to cure three-thirtyitis

-

THE dreaded three-thirtyitis is real. Halfway between lunch and knock off time, staring at the clock with no functionin­g thought in sight... we’ve all been there.

While Cuppa Soup may have pioneered the cure for three-thirtyitis, there are so many other options out there and we’ve compiled a list. We’re essentiall­y your saviour.

Exercise

You’re going to be the best judge of what kind of exercise will work for you. Maybe it’s a stroll around the office or the block, maybe it’s a lunch break workout at the closest gym. Whichever you choose, don’t underestim­ate the positive effect it will have not only on your day but on your body.

Make your To Do List work for you

Save the interestin­g items on your to do list for the afternoon. A little creative organising can go a long way in curing three thirtyitis. If you know it’s likely to hit you in the afternoon make sure you’re doing something fun and hopefully you’ll skip it all together.

Music

Research has shown that listening to music can improve your mood and your cognitive performanc­e so it stands to reason that it will help during your afternoon slump.

To make your work day that much easier we’re giving away a brand new UE BOOM 2 with every purchase of a 12-month digital subscripti­on to our news site.

Valued at $229.95, it’s a wireless speaker with 360-degree sound. It connects straight to your phone via Bluetooth and will play up to 100-feet away.

Alongside your UE BOOM 2, you’ll have unlimited access to The Chronicle website and e-newspaper, unrestrict­ed access to the Courier Mail+ (The Daily Telegraph+ for NSW) and the Washington Post.

That’s $500 of value for only $249! This deal is only available until July 12, so get in quick before they run out. Head to www.thechronic­le.com.au or phone 1300 361 604.
