Remote Work Could Be Killing You. Here's How Nature Can Help.

Remember the days when you dreamt of being able to work remotely?

No more morning commute, setting your schedule, taking walks and exercising when you wanted... it all seemed like the dream set-up. Then COVID hit and the dream became a reality.

The joy of working from home hasn't worked out quite as any of us expected. 

Working from home has apparently led to a 13% increase in productivity, partly from being less distracted and more focused.

However, most of that increase in productivity comes from working more minutes. The payoff may be fewer breaks, shorter lunch periods and staring at Zoom for longer than is healthy.

You end up with that feeling of always being "on" and a lack of separation between home life and work. Those longer hours also mean more screen time than ever. 

This all adds up to stress, anxiety and, ultimately, serious implications for your physical and mental health and wellbeing.

When you don't allow yourself the space and time you need to switch off, your body and mind pay the price.
