Work-in of the day

Happy National Oyster Day this August 5th! It's the perfect excuse to celebrate one of nature’s most nutrient-dense, low-calorie superfoods. Though we imagine it’s quite difficult to get hold of oysters in most work places (maybe even the local seafood market?), we thought we’d give you a few facts.

Oysters are antioxidants and fish in anti-inflammatory Omega 3

Oysters are the ultimate dietary source of immune-boosting zinc, and a single serving delivers massive doses of vitamin B12, iron, and selenium for sustained energy and brain health. Packed with high-quality protein, anti-inflammatory omega-3s, and a unique liver-protecting antioxidant called DHMBA, they are as incredibly healthy as they are delicious.

Early Morning Sun

  • 10mins of early morning sun as soon after waking as possible

  • Ensure this is direct sunlight without sunglasses

  • This ensures you are wide awake for peak performance during the day (+79% better at decision making than no daylight) and increases the chance you can drop off easily with sound sleep the following night


Face to face comms

  • Be mindful of digital communication vs face to face - try make the effort at least once today to go over and chat to your colleague

  • A face to face request is 34 times more effective than an email

Progressions

C-suite

- As prescribed above!

Supervisor

- if its cloudy or completely overcast go for 20-30mins daylight exposure

- Working remotely? a quick video call will be better than written comms

Share your progress in the comments!
