Comfy Essentials for All Your WFH Needs
Transform your home work environment with these must have products
Written by Kelly Carbone
With COVID regulations putting a hold on many standard work procedures more and more people have started working from home. This has brought on an onslaught of benefits and struggles, allowing people to relax their work attitudes and get a little more casual (no more stressful morning commutes or stuffy work attire!) while also leading to some motivational dry spells. This change in work routine can be difficult but we’ve found everything you need to create that perfect balance between cozy and efficient. Check out the list below to fully embrace and enhance your work from home routine.
A Good Pair of Fuzzy Socks
A nice pair of fuzzy socks is the ultimate comfy accessory to add to your new WFH routine. With the weather getting a little colder you definitely want to add a little warmth and comfort to your day, and these socks are the perfect way to do just that. Try a cozy slipper sock to really start off your day on the right foot. They’re affordable and lined with sherpa to add an even softer touch.
A Blanket Scarf
A blanket scarf helps add that snug and chic look to your work day. When working at home it’s important to find a balance between feeling comfortable and being productive and a blanket scarf will help give you a more fashion forward, less sluggish edge. You’ll feel just as cozy as being wrapped in a blanket (or that old sweatshirt you’ve had for years) but still look presentable enough to hop on a Zoom call at a moment’s notice.
An Energizing Essential Oil
With the added effect of quarantine fatigue, working from home can sometimes leave you feeling a little unmotivated or directionless. An energizing essential oil, such as the orange and ginger one pictured above, can help give you a boost of energy and a little more focus while still helping you feel totally zen. Whether it’s a candle, a mist spray, or some lotion these essential oil products will provide you with the perfect pick me up and can easily be left on your work desk for easy access.
A Mini Himalayan Salt Lamp
Himalayan salt lamps are another great way to enhance your work environment. There are many claims that this product can help improve air quality, promote focus, and emit a calm energy, all due to the negative ions emitted by the salt. It’s a desk accessory that’s both aesthetically pleasing and emotionally purposeful.
A Desk Cushion
When working from home it’s quite possible that you’re going to spend a majority of your time sitting down. With the purchase of a desk cushion you can make your work day way more comfortable and also help take care of your posture. The cushion will take off extra pressure on your back, allowing you to sit for longer periods of time without feeling sore, and will also encourage you to sit up a little straighter. If you have arthritis or are feeling some extra tension from increased typing time there are also mini cushions available for your wrists that can be used when using your keyboard or mouse.
A Polished and Positive Calendar
Less in-person office time can sometimes lead schedules to feel a little hazy. Keep on top of your work and deadlines with a desk calendar. A positive affirmation calendar, like the one pictured above, will help put you in a motivated working spirit and will also help keep you organized.
