One more day! another day at work, another additional painful 8 hours at work? does this sound like you? or your workplace?
How often do you think you can put up with anymore pain at work? physical pain from skeletal muscles flying around your head, neck, behind your eyes, jaws, shoulders and radiating down your back, your hips are stuck, knees ache and ankles are numb or mental and emotional confusion with pain arising from poor work conditions, deadlines and insatiable bosses.
Pain should not be tolerated, its simply a way the body signals you that something is wrong and needs to be fixed, it’s the body’s protective function from causative factors. The more you ignore this, the more it builds up in different areas until it submerge the entire body into an unbearable level of pain requiring medical attention.
Is this what you want for yourself? to go through expensive treatments and loading your body system with drugs to kill off pain? not to mention the psychological effects of depression at work which leads to low productivity.
If your body is calling out to you through pain today, don’t ignore it, take some time to observe the source of the pain and be wise enough to do something about it and I’m not talking about medications here, I refer to simple prevention and management techniques that could alleviate the situation or stop it from getting worse.
Recently, I discovered that even employees do not help themselves, they get stuck at their workstations, sitting badly for hours, ignoring the stretch breaks and staring sometimes hypocritically at the screen all because they don’t want to get fired.
Quick question here? When you get ill or injured, do you get paid compensation? When a colleague passes on, does he/she not get replaced? Be wise and take care of your health at work and at home. Embrace workplace health hygiene practices and save yourself from unwarranted pain and cost. If you really choose to live a long and healthy life free from pains, you will practice good time management, take frequent stretch breaks at work to relieve fatigued muscles, upgrade your sleep patterns, eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, practice mindfulness and good posture at all times.
How many years do you have to live? Do you want to live them in pain?
