Taking time to shake a leg
If you work in an office, you probably spend a fair part of your time sitting at a desk, which, of course, isn't very healthy. To combat that the Pomodoro technique recommends that you work in intervals with regular breaks — for example, 25 minutes work followed by a five-minute rest.
There are number of Pomodoro apps available to alert you when it's time to take a breather, but it can be hard to know which one to buy. Having experimented with more than a few for the Mac, I recently tried a made-in-Japan solution for iOS called Break Timer. This is different from other Pomodoro apps in that it lets you choose exactly how long you want to work or take a break. It also keeps track of time spent working using a handy calendar, which you can readily access the top left hand corner of the app.
