When you think of rest I don't want you to think of sleeping. I want you to be more aware and take more frequent breaks, when using your hands. For instance, if you are going to spend 30 minutes on the computer, you should have at least three, one minute rest breaks, in that allotted time. There are various software programs, such as Work Rave, that will prompt you to take little mini breaks in between usage. These are very helpful as they are automatic reminders to take breaks. I encourage you to install the software from Work Rave and see if it helps you create a more balanced and more mindful work atmosphere.
You can download Work Rave from the following link:

Taking small breaks will allow your hands some time to recuperate from the demands you place on them.
