坐办公室时的这些坏习惯，你一定得改改 Make your office better for your health

You spend about half of your waking hours at your job. Many occupations deliver stress, sedentary behavior, and unhealthy habits along with the paycheck, which can take their toll both physically and mentally.
你醒着的一半时间都花在工作上。工作为你带来了薪水，同时也带来了压力、久坐和一系列不健康的习惯，而这些都会影响你的身心健康。
But whether you work from a home office or sit in a corporate cubicle, there are things you can do to make your workplace better for your health and wellbeing.
但是，无论你是在家工作，还是在公司的小隔间里工作，总有办法能改造你的办公场所，促进健康。
Try a standing desk
If your workplace allows it, switching to a standing desk can help you sit less and move more during the day. But being on your feet all day can also lead to aches and pains, so look for a setup that allows you to adjust the height or your work station and use a chair when needed. 
如果你的工作环境允许的话，请选择一张站立式的办公桌，这能使你少坐多动。但是，整天站着也会使你感到不适，所以找一个能让你调整高度或工作台的装置。在必要的时候，也可以找张椅子坐一会。
You can even make a DIY standing desk if you don't have the space or resources for a real one; just be sure to keep your computer monitor at eye level, and your arms bent at 90 degrees to reach the keyboard, to avoid neck and arm pain.
如果你没办法搞到一张站立式办公桌，也可以自己动手做一张，只要确保电脑显示器和你的眼睛高度保持一致，手臂弯90度就能够到键盘，颈部和手臂没有痛感。
Paint your walls green
Shades of green have been linked to enhanced creative thinking. To get the most out of your walls, choose a hue that's quiet and calming — like a sage or sea-foam green. 
绿色与增强创新思维相关。为了更好地利用你的墙壁，你应该为墙壁选择一种平和的颜色，像是灰绿色或海泡绿。
Colors that aren't very saturated but relatively bright put us in the right sort of relaxed mental state to be doing knowledge work.
低饱和度，但是相对明亮的颜色能让我们处于放松的状态，有助于从事知识型工作。
Can't paint your space? Wallpapering your cube with a green backdrop or adding green elements to your desk may also be helpful. And whatever you do, avoid red.
不能粉刷墙面？那么，采用绿色墙纸或是在办公桌上增添绿色元素也会有所帮助。切记，无论你做什么，都不要选择红色。
Stop eating at your desk
One of the most important things you can do during the workday is to not eat at your desk. Have a dedicated area where you can go to get out of your own environment and have lunch, preferably with other people, so you can truly get that break during the day.
在你的工作日里，你能做的最重要的一件事就是，不要在你的办公桌上吃东西。约上你的小伙伴，找一个远离办公区域的地方吃午饭，这样你才能得到真正的休息。
Sitting down to lunch away from your desk won't just keep crumbs out of your keyboard; it can also help reset your brain for an afternoon of productivity. Plus, it can stop you from eating mindlessly while you work or surf the Internet. 
不要在你的办公桌边吃午餐，这一点不仅能避免你的键盘上出现面包屑，而且有助于你重启大脑，提高下午的工作效率。此外，它还可以防止你在工作或上网时盲目进食。
Take your pet to work
Allowing people to bring their dogs to work reduced job stress and boosted employee satisfaction in a 2012 study from Virginia Commonwealth University. And it wasn't just dog owners who benefited from the pet-friendly policy; other employees who came into contact with the animals reported less stress, as well.
弗吉尼亚联邦大学2012年的一项研究显示，让人们带着狗上班可以减轻工作压力，提高员工的满足感。不仅仅是狗主人能够从中受益，接触过这些动物的其他员工也表示自己的压力得以缓解。
"Of course, it is important to have policies in place to ensure only friendly, clean and well-behaved pets are present in the workplace," the study authors said in a university news release; it's also important to take into consideration coworkers who may be allergic to pets.
研究者在大学的新闻发布会上说道：“当然，在制定相关政策时，要确保只有友好、干净、表现良好的宠物才能出现在工作场所，这一点很重要。”同时，也要考虑到可能对宠物过敏的同事的要求。
Adjust your lighting
Getting natural light during the day is ideal, so your best bet is to sit near a window if possible. In fact, people with windows in their offices get better sleep and are more physically active than those without, according to a 2013 study from Northwestern University. 
在白天，最理想的状态就是接触自然光，所以如果可能的话，你最好坐在窗边。实际上，美国西北大学2013年的一项研究表明，人在有窗户的办公室里会比办公室没有窗户的人睡得更好，身体也更好。
If windows aren't an option, consider the temperature of your office lighting. Cooler, bluish light is generally good for analytical thinking, while warmer bulbs are better for socializing and interaction with other people. 
如果没有窗户，你可以考虑调节办公室的照明温度。较冷的蓝光通常有利于分析思考，而较暖的灯光则更适合社交活动。
Having a desk lamp you can turn on and off, rather than just one overhead light, can also help reduce eyestrain.
选择一盏可以开关的台灯，而不是挂一盏顶灯，也有助于缓解视疲劳。
