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?
