Strengthening your supply chain one link at a time.
Over the last couple of years many of us have moved from a company workplace to work-from-home. This changed our daily dynamic in many ways with one possibly being less mobility. In addition, as I get older my body aches have increased (my parents were right, should I tell them?!). I can be sitting, standing, or walking when a pain occurs. Outside of reversing time, exercising, stretching before we exercise, yoga, eating healthy, what can we do (like those are not enough 😊)? Reversing time like the Benjamin Button movie (I haven’t seen it because it is a creepy concept to me) is not possible, so that is out. Another option is to medically slow the aging process but since we don’t all have hyperbolic chambers like Tom Brady, that option is out too. If you love or at least tolerate exercise or yoga or eating healthy (most of the time), great, keep it going. Plus, even while you are working you can eat healthy as long as you don’t spill anything into your computer that damages it!
What else can we do while working for those of us who sit at a desk and stare at a screen all day? The suggestions below hopefully will help ward away daily aches and possible long-term negative effects.
Take care of your eyes
Someone told me when I was a child that eating carrots helps your eye-sight. I don’t know if that has been proven but feel free to try it!
Setup your workplace to fit you
Don’t be sedentary
Stay Hydrated
Now that we have settled into the “new normal” of our work-from-home life, let’s not to forget to take care of our bodies because we only have one life to live.
