Top four ways to stay healthy at work in 2022

January 16, 2013

Earning a living doesn't need to cost you your health. There are plenty of things you can do to make sure you stay healthy and happy at work.

Get up and move:
We all have certain times of the day when we tend to lack some energy. Sometimes you might even feel like you're about the fall asleep, get up, and take a walk, a little sunlight is just what you need. Not only will your muscles thank you for it, but it will improve circulation, making you a little less tired.

Make water your new best friend:
I keep a water jug and glass on my desk and fill it up first thing in the morning. I end up drinking a lot more water, without really noticing and simply because it's there. Do yourself a favor and try it, especially if you are a coffee or caffeine fan. The reality is that those kinds of beverages only dehydrate you and your brain is not going to function at a peak level.

Don't ignore stress:
There's no denying that work can be stressful, but sometimes it's the way we think, rather than situations themselves that leave us feeling overwhelmed.

A job that seems too difficult or demanding might be more manageable if you let go of certain beliefs, such as the notion that you should never make mistakes, or that everyone in your workplace needs to approve of you all time. The best way to relieve stress is to find ways to deal with it on a regular basis. Exercise is a great way to release the tension and allow your body to manage it better.

Watch Your Posture:
Many people spend hours on end in front of a computer each day. Incorrect posture will eventually cause a number of problems. Certain ergonomic changes can really make a difference. Always remember to sit close to the workstation and keep your monitors at eye level. Keep the keyboard at a level that doesn't require too much reaching.
