Members,
Spending too much time in the office? Try to work together with other work mates to change the office environment by doing some of these five minute power boosters:
Get Moving!
•Do some step aerobics at the office stair case
•Take a short walk around the block or through the office building
•Stand up and stretch your muscles, starting from your neck working your way down to your ankles
•Keep a stress ball on hand to squeeze when you need to release some pressure
Stimulate your mind!
•Take some time to do a word search, crossword or sudoko
•So some deep breathing exercises and some quiet meditation
•Clean your desk or office a little bit
•Draw a picture
The office environment can be draining so it’s important to take some time out for yourself to regroup and stay active. What have you found helpful to keep you on track to a healthy lifestyle?
