ABSTRACT:
A method for providing a health break while using computers, for those aspects of health that are impacted by use of computers for sustained periods of time. These health aspects are those which cause strain and fatigue of muscles in the neck, hand and back areas. Another, important health aspect is the strain on the ciliary muscles in the eye used for focussing. These muscles are strained by sustained visualization of the video screen. The method requires the operating system to pause the application, display a health related break message and an eye related health message at different rates for preset times. This message illustrates the purpose of break and what should be done during the break. The user has the features to delay or cancel the health related break message.
