How to Stay Healthy When You Work From Home | Elemental

I've worked from home most of this week, and it’s new for me. I've already realized that I need to start doing many of the things in this article. Most notably, moving more.

The golden rule, according to Cinkay, is to get up every hour and move — go to the bathroom, walk around the room, stretch, get a drink of water or a snack.

Being in an office, and having a job that is mostly meetings, insures that I move most days every 30 minutes or every hour just to get from one room to another. When you do that all on video, you replace that walking with clicking out of one meeting, and joining into another. You don't need to move at all. You need to schedule stretch breaks in to keep your body energized!
