The landscape of our work lives have changed immensely over the course of 2020. More of us are working from home, participating in home schooling and not able to partake in our usual activities in their usual forms. During this uncertain time, it's so important to ensure that we're still taking care of our bodies and minds.
The ways in which we sit, stand and move at work have a profound effect on our body and our wellbeing. Tune in to learn some tips and tools on how to keep your body from feeling stuck and sore at the end of a work day.
Join senior Osteopath Dr Victoria Chambers for a discussion of how to ensure we are taking care of our health and wellbeing while we're spending the majority of our time at home. We will discuss ergonomics for adults and kids, exercise from home and general tips for keeping happy and healthy during this time.
This will be a 45 minute workshop, with 15 mins of Q&A's built in. Topics will include:
Ergonomics: What, why and how to tailor your set up for your specific type of work
Ergonomics for kids: How to keep them from falling into bad habits
How to encompass movement in your regular work day to avoid feeling stiff and sore at the end of the day
