A Zen office environment can have a profound effect on the rest of your work day. Let’s face it, work can be stressful at times, and it is very easy to forget to breathe and stay calm. By adding or doing small things throughout your busy day, you’ll start to notice a positive difference.
1. Plants
Nobody likes to be stuck in a dull, boring looking office all day. A great way to make your office space more Zen is by adding a bonsai tree, bamboo plant or even some small succulents to your space. The bonsai tree is said to promote patience, peace, contemplation and effort.
2. Art
Adding some motivational pieces to your wall is another nice way to help you power through your busy day all while remaining calm. Sometimes a positive, inspirational quote or picture is all you need to get back on track and finish strong.
3. Meditation
Meditation is a simple way to re-center and reboot. Simply take a five-minute break to focus on your breathing and posture and you’ll feel like a totally new person. Once you’ve perfected the breathing and posture exercise, maybe challenge yourself to learn one new yoga pose each week.
4. Oil Diffuser
Oil diffusers are the new candles and are much safer. A diffusor consists of water and an essential oil of your choice. The diffuser will make your space smell great, and it is believed that lavender essential oil helps to reduce stress.
5. Organizers
No office space is ever complete without at least one organizer. Organizers are essential to having a successful day at work because they allow everything to run smoothly. Clutter not only looks bad, but it can affect your productivity too.
