You know I live around the clock, looking for healthier ways to live my life. For me, it had to start with a healthier workspace. All of us want to work somewhere that can support not only our work but our health too, that is why coworking spaces are incredibly important for businesses who want to move around and not be tied to one place. You want to find your ideal coworking space that suits your needs, and I certainly want to make my personal working space something that helps me.
My work as an influencer and writer requires me to spend 10/12 hours sitting down writing.
I do take breaks, work out, but the fact that I sit for most of my days, at least five days a week, had been worrying me for so many reasons.
I recently came across a solution which changed my work day: the Flexispot!
It’s not intrusive, its design made it become a part of my home office and one of my five tips I want to share with you, so you too, can have a healthier work day!
Honestly, working from home suits me perfectly.
I was actually talking to a friend of mine about this a few days ago.
She has recently started working from home and she told me that at first she was nervous about missing out on quality time with her fellow employees.
However, her workplace has set up a work from home mentorship program to ensure that everyone stays in touch while working remotely!
I thought this was such a good idea.
Plus, there are some fantastic tools out there like corporate mentoring software that can make working from home so much easier.
How do you feel about working from home?
Get in touch and let me know your thoughts!
For now though, let us discuss my tips for a healthy workspace.
Five Tips For A Healthier WorkSpace
Just Keep Moving
The Flexispot all-in-one desk bike gave me the solution I needed to keep moving while doing my work. I can adjust the height, have my water bottle besides me and sit in a comfortable cushion as a second work station!
The all-in-one desk bike adds fitness to your daily routine by keeping you active and productive throughout the day. It’s the world’s first product of its kind. The part exercise bike, part standing desk design make it unique. Also, its design allows easy set up and mobility, 1-minute assembly.
I’ve established that every hour will be my change point to use the Flexispot bike and keep moving, while continuing my work.

Drink More Water
The Flexispot bike helps me feel the need to drink more water, almost doubling my water intake on an 8 hour work day!
As you probably know water helps you get rid of toxins, giving you that glowing skin look and it keeps me fuller, longer.
Protect Your Eyes
All the hours I spend in front of a computer screen have damaged my eyes. Even if you don’t work in front of your computer all the time, your phone and tablet screens also are proven to cause damage.
I love my glasses which not only protect my eyes against the screen time but they’re also prescription based.
Take a Breath
I take breaks during my work day:
- go outside,
- take a breath,
- put my feet on the grass,
- talk to my family,
- and take a pool dip on my lunch time break!
It refreshes my brain and resets my thinking – helping my creativity!
Be Grateful
Gratitude is a beautiful feeling! Blessings come from a grateful heart! Start your day away from social media, refrain from looking at other people’s lives. Start your day dreaming about your goals, feeling the positive things which are yet to come – attracting them into your lives!
I even have a gratitude Jar, which I received as a gift at Oprah’s Favorite Things Event and write a note every day, before I start working.
It shifts my mood for better, always!
Hope my tips help YOU set a healthier workspace and that you share it with your friends!
Can’t wait to hear what you do to live a healthier life!
As usual, give us a Trendy Shout!
We recently started a gratitude board at work. It has been nice to have compliments here and there.
I really struggle with moving around during the workday. This would be a great way to keep going.
That is the best desk EVER! I work from home so I really have to be mindful to move. Love that I can multitask with the desk.
It’s so important to have a healthy workspace. I absolutely love the idea of getting a Flexispot Bike because it sounds like the perfect way to stay active.
I love this! Killing 2 birds with 1 stone!
I have a treadmill, but hate that I can’t multi-task and work while I run on it! This bike seems like the PERFECT desk for me!
I need that desk in my life! I get so busy with work I no longer have enough time to workout, and this is the best solution 🙂
I could definitely use a desk like this! I’m always trying to get on top of my health and something like this would definitely keep me motivated to stay healthy.
What a terrific desk- getting your workout in while you work kills two birds with one stone and saves time. Plus, it helps to ensure you never miss your workout. Love this desk!
I love this blog post! First of all that desk looks amazing! I’ve been wanting one since I saw you had one! It looks like such a great way to break up your work routine and help your body. I also loved your idea of using a gratitude jar and put a note in it before you start your day. Setting your intentions before the day starts. Great tips!!!
