I'm glad that you brought up taking pause exercises (while working on the computer).
About the importance of taking breaks:
can you provide more advantages and health benefits (in addition to the ones you've come up with)
Be careful how you present the benefits or stretch breaks - use the positive approach:
VastaaPoistaenlivens circulation and improves metabolism
(Excessive computing slows down blood circulation - you do stretch exercises to improve it!)
