Break Away From Excessive Sitting, See How Much Better You Feel

Break Away From Excessive Sitting, See How Much Better You Feel

Many people feel better almost immediately when they swap sitting for standing and regular movement.

A worker who uses an adjustable-height work desk told TIME: “I definitely feel healthier standing while working as it causes me to be more focused on my posture and ‘hold’ myself better in terms of my stomach and shoulders especially.”

Standing more works for me. I have to be at my desk many hours daily, so standing up and moving around about once every 15 mins, is my way to counteract the ill effects of sitting. But, I know of some people who just do not sit.

And, in addition to not sitting, they walk several miles a day, but they do not edit and write for a international financial news website..

Today, some corporations encourage “Walk-and-Talk” meetings and e-Mail-free work zones, and offer standing workstations to those who are interested. But if yours isn’t among them, take matters into your own hands. You may be used to sitting down when you get to work, but try, for a day, standing up instead. Keep an open mind and see how you feel

We live in a world of chairs: adjustable, swivel, recliner, wing, club, chaise lounge, sofa, arm, four-legged, three-legged, wood, leather, plastic, car, plane, train, dining, and bar. That is the bad news. The good news is that we do not have to use them all the time.

Standing up is good, now if I could walk and write at the same time…

Have a terrific weekend.
