Stairway to Better Health
November 18th, 2009 by Carol Dobies
When you see a really good idea, you absolutely have to share it with everyone you know. It used to be that we’d simply email a cool link to our friends and colleagues, but this one is worth talking about.
My hat is off to Volkswagen and thefuntheory.com. From pianos to pinball, they have collected some great ideas to inspire healthy behaviors.
For all of my clients with offices on the second floor or higher, let this be an inspiration to you to use the stairs. At a minimum, consider equipping your stairways to health to help fight obesity by giving it a fresh coat of paint. Hang some artwork, include an inspirational message or two. Maybe install Wii Fit stations on a landing, or wire up a video board so employees can compete with one another on the number of trips up the steps. Please add to the list of possibilities by posting a comment.
