Summary: Sitting at a desk all day can be killer for your health. We are always looking for ways to improve our environment and what we consume, but what can we do in an office setting? How can you make your workplace healthier?<br> <br> On this episode, we are joined by Laura Pappas who, in addition to being a dear friend, served as a Health and Care Lead for the consulting firm that we work for. In this super unique position, Laura was able to establish a framework and specific programs to help our consultants be healthier in their work environment. Lucky for us, she was willing to share that knowledge.<br> <a href="http://lifelistened.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Laura-Pappas-Photo.jpg"></a><br> Links mentioned in this episode:<br> <br> * Drink Recipe: <a href="http://silverlinedandwined.com/recipe/red-wine-hot-chocolate/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Red Wine Hot Chocolate</a><br> * <a href="https://www.laurapappashealth.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Laura’s Blog</a><br> * <a href="https://www.facebook.com/laurapappashealth/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Laura’s Facebook</a><br> * Laura’s recommendations for standing desks:<br> <br> * Portable: <a href="https://standsteady.com/products/traveler-folding-stand-up-desk" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Stand Steady</a><br> * Portable: <a href="https://www.uncagedergonomics.com/workez-professional/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Workez</a><br> * Not portable: <a href="https://www.varidesk.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Varidesk</a><br> <br> <br> * <a href="http://www.workrave.org" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">WorkRave App</a> to remind you to take breaks from your computer<br> * <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wod-deck-of-cards/id590984741?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Let’s WOD App</a> for workouts on the go<br> <br> <br> Episode Sponsor: Annie’s Kit Clubs<br> <a href="http://lifelistened.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Annies_NewDRG_1-e1519763331185.jpg"></a><br> Annie’s Kit Club is a subscription kit for your little your maker or builder!
