Workplace Activities

Healthy Habits

  • Manage your environment by adding comforting and personal touches to your office.
  • Arrange tea time breaks for your office (we recommend London Fog).
  • Show gratitude to at least one co-worker a week in a special way (e.g., write them a note or leave them a treat).
  • Use work breaks to get moving by taking a walk with a colleague.Coordinate a consistent lunch date (monthly or weekly) with a colleague.
  • Set goals for drinking water and tell a colleague who will help you stick to them.
  • Encourage teams to have at least one meeting each week where attendees stand or walk instead of sit.
  • Focus on maintaining good posture throughout the day to help your body and brain feel well.
  • Have objects available that are calming for each of the five senses.

Events

  • Invite a panel of judicial officers to speak about their well-being practices and challenges.
  • Plan a technology blackout day: no emailing, texting, or calling colleagues outside work hours.
  • Host a lunch for those who are going through similar work-life challenges.
  • Take a funny team photo to have on your desk when you need a laugh.
  • Host a potluck lunch that allows colleagues to share their healthy recipes.
  • Hold a prize drawing for well-being items such as FitBits, journals, and healthy cookbooks.
 

Resources

  • Start an office library that includes books staff have enjoyed and books on well-being.
  • Make well-being toolkits with a notebook for journaling, maps to green spaces for walking, and tea for relaxing.
  • Maintain a good news board at the office for colleagues to share positive messages and updates.
