4. Stay Hydrated
Dehydration can lead to fatigue and reduced cognitive function. Keep a bottle of water at your desk and aim to drink at least 8 cups (about 2 liters) of water throughout the day.
5. Healthy Snacking
Swap out chips and candy for healthier snacks like nuts, fruits, or yogurt. Healthy snacks can provide sustained energy levels without the sugar crash associated with more processed options.
6. Mental Health Breaks
Mental health is as important as physical health. Take moments to practice mindfulness or breathing exercises to manage stress. Apps like Headspace or Calm can guide you through short meditation or relaxation sessions.
7. Maintain Social Connections
Social interactions can boost your mood and reduce stress. Take time to engage with colleagues during breaks. Even a short conversation can be refreshing and invigorating.
