EDM Was my go to as well. But, then I realized it gets my body too stimulated for sitting tasks. It makes me want to get up and move, which is bad for batching, in my case.:)
Yeah I'm always catching myself chair dancing or headbanging. It just keeps my motivation up. I've found slower music makes my mind wander more for some reason.

I just added it to my cart! i have a lot of shoulder issues and this would help a lot because I could relax my shoulder! Thanks!
No problem. I'm all about ergonomic. I'm at the pc about 20hrs a day. Gotta sit/stand/lean/stretch and brace.:p

You can do it! Try listening to Classical music. Time flies when it's on and it calms most people. Also try using a Pomodoro timer https://tomato-timer.com/ which helps you to work for 25min increments. You get a 4 min break between the first 3, then a 20 min break after the 4th. Most people can do 25minutes of anything.:)
Have you made the pomodoro clock on freecodecamp yet? That's a fun one.

You may want to look around because there a few colors and setups in that price range. I just linnked to the first one I found. I can't recommend it, as I haven't tried that one. I've used the braces that connect to my desk.(second photo) BUt, those are articulated and pricey. I don't not recommend it. I just haven't tried that kind. I hear good things though.:)

something like that should help. Anything to get hte mouse off my desk. I sometimes put it in my lap, but that's too narrow of a space.

I've always found that a clipboard and a mouse pad works in a pinch. If it's a corded mouse, you can run the cord though the clip.:)

If anyone's in the Charlotte NC area this weekend, I'll be dancing down at Billy Bob's Billiards, BBQ & Beefcake Bar N' Grill.
