Sitting vs. Standing at Work
I was wondering recently, whether a standing desk is “better” than a sitting desk, especially since I have a larger need to move than other persons. Apparently standing desks aren’t that good, but sitting all day isn’t either. Best solution: Move. Every hour stand up and walk a little.
I’m doing these kind of regular breaks now for almost 6 months and this new habit is relaxing and I get so much more done than before. I’m more focussed and concentrated.
I’m using Time Out to remind myself of doing breaks. I didn’t find anything comparable, although there are other solutions, but none was as annoying and disrupting as Time Out. (Which means: The tool really gets in your way. All you have to do is to remind yourself why you put that disruption there and…move.)
