I recently stopped working from home and moved into a co-working space out of necessity (rambunctious children at home). However, I don't want to talk about the change in setting, but part of this is that I added a walking commute to my day. About 20 minutes of brisk walking each way. It feels great. It's built-in exercise and it also serves as a great transition between home and work-life. As I'm heading to work (as a freelancer), I'm usually listening to podcasts and getting into the work mindset. As I'm walking home, it's either podcast or music and getting into the helpful father/husband mindset. Big positive change for me thus far, especially as someone who typically enjoys exercise, but has difficulty making time for it between work and kids.
- rmb177 10y agoI changed jobs a little over 4 years ago and went from working from home to working for a local company. I have about a 25 minute walk each way, and like you, I find the same benefits. I "read" so many more books now having signed up for an Audible subscription. Plus the company I work for pays out a $1 benefit each way to encourage walkers/bikers/public transportation. I live in the upper Midwest so I don't always enjoy the winter walks, but I still try and do it every day.
