AT - Autogenous Training
before i tried AT i thought it was something esoteric, but now i think it's really
worth trying it.
i once bought an AT learnig book/CD, and didn't even finish all the chapters, but it was a great experience to learn how you can influence your body. so it can help you to learn some rituals which help you to relax, but first it will make you realize
that you can influence parts of your body without doing anything but relaxing and a bit concentrating and some minutes of your time.
things that also help me (during work):
- headphones with my favourite music
- playing a party of online chess
- have an irc window open with your favourite irc channel where you can rant about the current bug you're trying to find whenever you need to (and hopefully hear some "i know what you mean" from others)
- don't take work too seriously. yes, it's necessary to feel responsibility about your work, but whenever possible, try to remeber, you are not your work, it's just a part of your life
- perl (yeah, now we're ontopic again). it's fun programming Perl, oneliners, JAPHs and perlgolf. it's fun because, like merlyn said in this post: "Because Perl's so durn easy to use we got time to play around impressing
each other. :)"

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
