Anyone else finding it 1000%* easier to focus on work whilst standing vs. sitting?

*hypothetical stat

I'll start "Stand by Your Stroop: Standing Up Enhances Selective Attention and Cognitive Control" journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09…

Slightly different one with my fav task: "A standing posture is associated with increased susceptibility
to the sound‑induced flash illusion in fall‑prone older adults" @ExpBrainRes link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Increased congruency effects on auditory task switching when standing vs. sitting frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

"Standing enhances cognitive control and alters visual search"
