It’s wild that desk jobs are so dangerous.

But it’s true.

I almost feel typing this out like you might take it as a joke while you’re reading. So please understand…

I’m dead serious.

Working a typical office job is really bad for your health these days, for a number of reasons.

1. Sitting all day hunched over a computer is horrible for your posture and back, which has a cascade of symptoms that hurt your overall health.

2. Sitting for prolonged periods of time is bad for your circulation as well.

3. Office spaces aren’t designed for movement at all, and the human body thrives on movement.

4. When you’re tucked away indoors all day under fluorescent lights, you’re missing out on natural sunlight, which has tons of benefits for your overall health.

And that’s just scratching the surface.

But the big question here is… Why isn’t anybody doing anything about this?

To me, it’s always seemed like companies check a “wellness” box with really generic programming and support, simply to prove they’re doing something.

But they’re not ACTUALLY doing anything.

Sometimes it’s a workshop that people attend, and quickly forget.

Or maybe a Zoom training where everyone’s screen is off, and they’re doing something else while passively listening here and there.

Or my favorite: “Here’s a lump sum of money to invest in your health! Now figure it out on your own.”

To which folks will buy a foam roller and some protein shakes, and nothing meaningful ever gets acccomplished.

We can do better.

Honestly, we must.

It’s a no brainer, when you consider that a happier, healthier, stronger employee turns out to be…

• Present at work more consistently
• More productive
• Brings a better mood and energy to the workplace

I’m trying to crack the code on this.

Admittedly, I’m biased. But I think coaching can play a massive role in helping with workplace health and wellness.

If you’re looking for a better experience with your work-life-wellness balance…

Or you feel your company can do better…

Comment below, or shoot me a message. I would love to help!
