It\u2019s easy to feel like you\u2019re starting to drag at work.\u00a0 People often turn to excessive amounts of caffeine or sugar to get them through the day.\u00a0 Despite the quick increase in energy, this ultimately results in a caffeine or sugar crash a few hours later.\u00a0 Even just powering through the fatigue can have its drawbacks.\u00a0 Here are 5 tips on how to beat fatigue at work.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Start your day on a good foundation: Sleep<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    A good night\u2019s rest can go a long way.\u00a0 Getting the right amount of sleep is key, but it is also important to get quality sleep.\u00a0 Avoid as many distractions as possible by turning off the television, music, cell phones and tablets.\u00a0 If you still have light pollution in your bedroom, try using a sleep mask.\u00a0 You will feel ready for a productive day after a long quality rest!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Don\u2019t skip meals!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This one is tough because it is easy to forget to eat when you\u2019re busy.\u00a0 Unfortunately, this will lead to a huge drain in energy.\u00a0 Even a small breakfast, like cereal or yogurt, will make a difference.\u00a0 If your job allows it, keep a health snack at your desk.\u00a0 A handful of pretzels or almonds will provide a quick recharge.\u00a0 Most importantly, never skip lunch.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Find a reason to get away from your desk<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Moving around will provide an energy boost because it increases blood circulation.\u00a0 Maybe you have something to file or copies to make.\u00a0 If you can\u2019t get away from your work station, try standing for a few minutes instead of sitting.\u00a0 You can also try small stretches at your desk.\u00a0 Wiggle your toes, move your ankles around, move your shoulders and neck around.\u00a0 It\u2019s simple enough that you can do it while getting your work done.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Look away from the computer<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Constantly staring at a computer screen will cause significant eye strain and fatigue.\u00a0 Every 20 minutes, look away from your computer at a distant object (20 feet away) for 20 seconds.\u00a0 This is known as the 20-20-20 rule.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Remember that there is a world outside of work<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            It may feel counterproductive to walk away from your work, but powering through it is exhausting.\u00a0 Try to go outside for lunch or even a 10 minute break.\u00a0 At the very least, walk past a window and sit somewhere else for a few minutes. \u00a0A change of scenery can go a long way in helping to unwind and relax.\u00a0 While you\u2019re out there, forget about everything that\u2019s happening at your desk.\u00a0 You will feel recharged and more productive when you return to your desk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s easy to feel like you\u2019re starting to drag at work.\u00a0 People often turn to excessive amounts of…","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1296,1316,566,532],"tags":[835,836,837],"class_list":{"0":"post-7825","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-tips-and-trends","7":"category-office-wellness-tips-and-trends","8":"category-office-health-and-wellness","9":"category-office-wellness","10":"tag-office-wellness","11":"tag-beat-fatigue","12":"tag-healthy-office","13":"cs-entry"},"yoast_head":"\n5 Tips To Beat Fatigue At Work -
