Energize Your Work with Movement #shorts

In this weekly tip on flourishing at work, I invite you to introduce more movement into your day. You'll notice that as you move more, you are more productive, you're more creative, and you'll leave the day with more energy than less. So, three simple ways in which you can introduce more movement. The simplest is to make some of our meetings into walking meetings or at least standing meetings. Second is introduce hourly physical movement breaks. They can be five minutes or less, but they'll have a huge impact on your ability to pay attention and your ability to focus on. In fact, study by University of Illinois shows that both of these go up by 11% if we introduce five minutes of physical movement every hour into your schedule. And finally, if you are a bit competitive or you want to introduce play, this is a wonderful thing to set team goals and competitions. And you can compete either weekly or monthly on who walks the most. Have fun with this and see how with more movement in your day, you're able to be more productive. You're able to have more creativity and a lot more team collaboration.
