Screens DRAINING energy
Is it just me or does starting at monitors kill energy levels. I find that half way through the day I’m tired and I think it’s because of screens.
Does anybody else deal with this? Finance is obviously a screen heavy job so is there anyway to get over this?! Foods to eat, blue light protection glasses, anything?
Thanks
Key risks in all management jobs:
- sitting / lack of movement
- screen exposure
- eye strain
- lack of oxygen
- bad for skin as well
- bad posture if not super ergonomic desk/chair, ..
- not great for hands due to constant use of keyboard/mice
Ideally, go for a walk in between. work out in the morning or at night, look out the window, invest in a good monitor, humidify the room/air, exposure to other humans/pets, listen to music/meditate/relax somehow
Thanks, any monitor recommendations?
All my monitors are Samsung, but I wouldn't recommend them for ergonomic use cases. If you want the screens for health/radiation/blue light, etc... look elsewhere.
Samsung has good picture quality. I have one screen for work, one for movies, one for trading or another document. Plus the Macbook Pro screen. But not the best setup.
Are you eating a ton at lunch? That's a common reason to crash mid-day. As is skipping breakfast and chugging coffee in the AM.
Try a small snack in the AM, less caffeine in the mornings and a smaller meal at lunch time and you should feel a bit lighter and breezier.
My firm came in pretty clutch and has provided everyone with these new hp monitors which cut out a lot of the glare so the screen is more muted more akin to how a kindle looks. Been surprisingly helpful in cutting fatigue as less wear and tear on the eyes. Will definitely buy for my home setup too soon
What’s it called?
Blue light glasses also helped me
I recommend purchasing blue light glasses. I got mine at Warby Parker.
I went to an optician a few years ago and purchased some carbon fiber frames with transitional lenses that blocked UV rays and blue light. The frames were $150 and lenses $250. I used to wear them all the time for about a year, but now don’t use them much anymore.
Did they help? Why did you stop using them
