Sitting at a computer may be the hazardous occupation of the new millennium. The repetitive actions that computer use requires, done in ways that put harmful stress on the user's body, lead to a variety of injuries and painful conditions. These conditions are often referred to as repetitive stress injuries (RSI). The incidence of RSI in the workplace is rising, and the monetary and human costs of computer-induced injury and disability are staggering.
Factors such as workplace and equipment design contribute to this toll, and ergonomic improvements can certainly reduce it. Ergonomic improvements alone, however, can not solve the problem. They do not address the role that the computer user plays in producing her or his own injuries, through excessive effort and poor body organization. And they do nothing to address the underlying cause of this excessive effort and poor body organization -- a lack of self-awareness which makes efficient functioning difficult if not impossible.
Low-Stress Computing is a somatic education program which uses greater self-awareness and improved body organization to reduce the stresses which lead to RSI. The program is currently under development and will eventually include experiential movement lessons, guided self-exploration, and various forms of explanatory material.
