We spend most of our time at work than we do with our family and friends. But while we are there for those 8 hours a day,why not make an effort and be healthy by trying the following tips.
Don't let work consume you. Studies show Americans do not take enough breaks at work. Get up and take five or ten minutes by walking outside or checking your mailbox. Your back will thank you for it.
You should get up from your desk every 2 hours and stretch. Focus on your neck, shoulders and spine as these are the first places in our body that feels stressed.
Walking for at least 30 min a day improves cardiovascular health. In addition,walking after lunch also helps your body digest food quicker and increases your metabolism.
The next time you take a break, grab your sneakers and walk with a few co-workers. This not only builds camaraderie in the office, you are also promoting a healthy way to relieve stress at work.
Our body needs to stay hydrated at all times. Coffee dehydrates the body. So, for every cup of java you have double your intake of H2O. Better yet try to limit your coffee intake to just 2 cups a day.
You work hard, be good to yourself and be healthy at work.
