    Contents

      Few things affect our ability to get work done more than poor health. There is no magic potion for a healthy office. Good health takes a day to day awareness and practice. Like remembering to drink enough water, eating right, exercising regularly and methodically getting up from your desk for a quick stretch.

It also keeps you stimulated and more creative. If you don’t want to spring for a desk right away, try putting your laptop on a milk crate on your desk in 15 minute spurts throughout the day.
