I usually tell people the opposite, that is to get off the chair and start moving but NOT in the case of what I'm about to talk to you about. When we have high levels of stress the intestine does not do a very good job of digesting its food. It's important that when we eat a meal that we sit down and relax. I see many people multi task while eating for example the other day I visited a friend at his office and he was working on the computer while holding his phone and eating a chicken wrap. You may take this lightly but over the long run you may run in to digestive issues. I even found it in this Four Life-Extending Eating Strategies.
So take your time, chew your food, relax and eat while sitting down.
