NC as this is a great opportunity and very grateful to my employer

I have a spell of PowerPoint based study/training days coming up over the next few months. Problem is.... I can't stay awake, it's all really interesting stuff BUT when you're sat there listening to power points I can just feel my eyes going when it's an all dayer after a few hours ! I've tried writing notes/ pinching myself etc but I really struggle...

Please tell me I'm not alone and if you're the same tell me how you get through them.
Don't get me wrong I don't sleep the whole day (thank goodness!) but during the times I feel sleepy it's torture and I feel disrespectful to the person taking the class !

Help !

Powerful mints or those fisherman's friends lozenges to make your eyes water.

Change your posture every 20 minutes.
