Strategies for Enjoying Your Workday
Self-care seems like a sacred word reserved for activities you do in the privacy of your home—things like yoga, long baths and quiet, meditative evenings. It’s a very deliberate form of care, a ritual we exercise full control over. But away from home, at places like the office, the concept of well-being shifts. We think of it as something our employers should take the first stab at providing: a workplace culture that produces happiness for us.

A happy worker increases his or her productivity by 12 percent, according to a 2014 study from the University of Warwick. If you’re feeling unhappy at work, try switching up your routine with these quick, nourishing activities.
