Do you remember "Sitting is bad for you" post from Instructables blog?

That told us we shouldn't sit for a long time. We should have a break after a few sitting on a chair.

It's many hours I am sitting on a chair to work with PC, and I know it's not good.

But who can told me "Hey, It's time to break!" ?

Maybe "Health Reminder"!

Health reminder is a simple script that warn with a message box, when you should have a break.

That will help you to have a healthy body and intercept long sitting times!

Step 1: Scripting

Open Notepad
Copy (Ctrl+C) and Paste (Ctrl+V) below code in the editor:

do
wscript.sleep 1800000
x=msgbox ("Hey, It's time to break!" ,64, "Health Reminder")
loop

Explanation:

Above code, wrote with VBScript language.
Below, I will explain what we saw there:

Line1: Start a ring of orders (do)

Line2: Wait for 30 minutes (30 minutes is 1800000 Milliseconds. you can use Windows calculator to convert amounts.)

Line3: After that, show me a message box with "Hey, It's time to break!" content and "Health Reminder" title. 64 is the message box type. For more info about message types, check out here.)

Line4: Repeat this process

Step 2: Save

Go to File>Save (or press Ctrl+S)
Choose a name for the file and add ".vbs" in end of that. e.g: EXAMPLE.vbs
Choose a location & Click Save.

Now each time you click on the script, the process will start.

Step 3: Change Icon

_(Optional)

Right click on the file and select "Create shortcut"
In the new opened window, click on "Change Icon..." button.
Choose your favorite icon. Note. You can only choose icons with .ico format type. You can use ConvertIcon to convert an image to.ico format.
