Simple Standing Desk Options + Unboxing My New One!

/

So, you’ve heard all the rave about standing while you work.

Good. Because being able to alternate between sitting and standing is great for your health and your productivity.

But.

How do you decide what option works best for you?

I’m excited to unbox and review the new standing desk converter I’m using now!

Plus, here are some questions I ask myself and my clients to decide what option is best.

  1. Is your current desk one you want or must keep?

  2. Do you sit for most of every day?

  3. Do you have several virtual meetings in which you could easily stand?

  4. How often do you work in multiple locations (coffee shop, clients’ offices)?

  5. Do you mostly work from a laptop, a desktop, or does it depend on the day?

There are several sit-stand desks and standing desk converters available.

You may need one that is several hundred dollars. (And if your situation needs it, that’s pennies compared to back pain.)

On the other extreme, I show you the two DIY versions I used for years. My situation changed. So, I changed my desk set up.

Whatever you choose, make sure you easily get movement put into your day.

Because that’s what will keep you healthy and achieving all you want in life.

Several companies have community gardens. The benefits are great — for those who dig in the dirt.

But there are easy ways to get the benefits for even more people, without the “uh-oh, whose turn is it to weed” headache.


















How to Create a Culture of Wellness - Part Two

/

How do you create a culture of wellness when you are the only employee or have just a few people working for you?

Anytime you are working on “you” and not on your business, do you fear you are getting behind? “Yes” is a common answer, but the truth is different.

When you work on you — including your health — you will grow your business. This is not pleasant to think about, but you are not your most effective working from a hospital bed that you could have avoided.

The flip of that? In this video I share how I helped a business owner move from scared he wouldn’t have enough money on a monthly basis — to stable and growing because he changed ONE thing: how he took care of his health.

You can do it, too!
