2. Ok, see it in your mind, you are outside, enjoying a walk
keep repeating the vision adding stimulus that you might find inviting, such as color of leaves, sound of birds, enjoyment of a sport until you find yourself longing to be outside away from the computer.

5. I can't help thinking of Craig Toomey's character in the movie
The Langoliers by Stephen King. He's sitting in the plane (going even more insane), tearing magazine pages into little strips and letting them fall on the floor around his feet. I imagine we all feel a little like him right now.

Take a deep breath, calm down but keep one eye on the TV.

14. Clean something!
I actually hate housework, but it times like this, it comes in handy as a distraction. (And you can keep the TV on for background noise.)
