If the sedentary work life of sitting in the office all day is taking a toll on your well-being, it's time to adopt new habits so you can become healthier at work. To get started, scroll down and start moving.


How to stay healthy at work?
1. Take the stairs.
Before you even reach your seat, begin the day with a mini workout. Park far, take the stairs, and get the blood flowing in your body. You can also get more movements during breaks as well by climbing the stairs, taking a walk around the floor, or doing desk exerecises and stretches.
2. Pack meals.
Homemade meals offer more nutritious options. When you pack your own food, you know exactly what goes into them. Also, it saves you time from having to visit an establishment. You can use the extra 20 - 30 minutes for exercising or rest.
3. Sign up for a gym close to work.
If the office already has a fitness center, then make good use of it. If it doesn't, then join a gym near work. Having close proximity near the office makes fitting in fitness much easier. Of course, if you cannot yet afford the gym, then get a few hand weights or exercise bands to store in the office, so you can use them during breaks.
4. Request for a standing desk.
A standing desk, especially one with an adjustable feature, provides great physical improvements. These improvements include stretching, more leg movements, and better blood flow. If your employer offers a standing desk option, you should take advantage of it.
5. Keep healthy snacks in the office.
Snacking isn't bad if you avoid eating empty calories. Try to keep packaged snacks that are more nutritious at your desk. Some options include protein bars, protein chips and trail mixes. Snacking can become a healthy daily routine if you consume healthier snacks.
6. Stay hydrated.
Staying hydrated not only keeps you full and energized, it boots your immune system too. When your system is energized and refreshed, your productivity and clarity are boosted as well. Always keep a water bottle near by and drink as much water as you can through out the day.
7. Keep the work space clean and organized.
Clean space, clean mind. When your mind is clear, you can think more effectively and make better decisions, including the types of food that you put into your body. Each day before you leave, take a few minutes to tidy up paperwork, organize drawers and wipe away dust from surfaces. A little care goes a long way.
Parting Thoughts
If you have developed healthier habits during COVID's work-from-home policies and want to continue staying healthy when you return to the office, then the habits above might be of help. Knowlege professionals with less active jobs do not have to succumb to a sedatary lifestyle. By making small changes, you can improve your well-being in a big way.
