Use these exercises at your desk to help alleviate the strain of working at the computer.
1. Sit up tall in your chair, or if possible stand up. Stretch your arms overhead and interlock your fingers, turn the palms to the ceiling. Take a deep breathe in and on the exhale extend your side torso and take the tips of the shoulder blades into the body. Take another deep breathe and on the exhale stretch to the right, inhale come up and exhale stretch to the left.

Depends on what level of perfection in the postures as to what you should know as to the effects. All postures have a relaxing element in order to achieve domination of the postures. Try the Surya Namaskaram (Sun Excersise) and then just lay on your back and deep breath and in the process relax your thinking activity. If your objective is to relax that should be good to get you there. Of course only you know what works for you.
