BRING EXERCISE TO THE WORKPLACE
Include physical activity in your working schedule cycle to work if this is possible, take the stairs, exercise or go for a walk during your lunch breaks, and encourage others to do so too.
CHOOSE HEALTHY FOOD OPTION
Ask for healthy food at your work canteen, or find nearby cafes or restaurants that serve healthy meals.
ENCOURAGE STRESS FREE MOMENTS
