Are You Using This Free Stress-Reliever There is a great workplace stress-reliever available to most of us, and it is absolutely free. You dont have to pay any membership fees, you dont need expensive equipment, and you probably can do it on your next lunch break. Can you guess what it is? Take a walk outside. Not much of a secret, I know, but most of us dont do what we already know is a good idea. The benefits of doing this simple thing are big, though, so think through some of your objections and see how to add a walk outside to your day: park far away so you have to walk to get to work have a walking meeting with a co-worker or two (more than three gets awkward) walk inside in bad weather; its better than not walking at all take a walk when you are stuck on a project so you can ruminate on solutions walk a little bit if you cant walk much This is one of the easiest things you can do to reduce your workplace stress, and its free. You may have to bring some shoes from home and switch into them, but thats about it. Your health will improve, your attitude will improve, and you come back inside with a fresh take on problems. Whats the alternative? Sitting at your desk stewing over things, your thoughts chasing each other like hamsters on a wheel and not going anyplace, your body settling into a blob of unhealthiness. So get up, go outside, and take a walk. Its free, its good for you, and it gets rid of some of that stress.
