From Uptight to Zen-Like

Is your home office zen-like?

Is your home office zen-like?

My home office is comfortable, relaxing and set up so I can find what I need when I need it, but it’s not zen-like. I didn’t think about it (or even care about it) until I read the article, 18 Ways to Create a Relaxing Home Office Experience.”

Of the 19 tips—someone messed up on the numbers but I’ll take an extra tip any day—I already follow four of them.

#2. Find a room with a view, #10. Meditation breaks (I call them bathroom breaks), #12. Organize your belongings, and #13. Get an ergonomic office chair.

Some of the other tips are going to be more challenging: #3. Get some green. Some people are great with plants. I’m not one of them. The second #3. Fresh air. I live in Texas where it’s hot most of the time and where the mosquitoes hold year-long conventions. #17. Cut the sugar. Seriously?

I especially like #18. Get a massage on your lunch break. I’m not sure how that will improve my home office but it sounds good to me.
