At times, slouching will often lead in tempting you to take a quick doze or maybe a short nap. Everything is perfectly fine except of course if you are in the office and you have tons of paperwork to do. So rather than wait for your boss to take notice and most likely get you into trouble, here is an advanced way to save your neck.
The Philips Ergosensor Monitor will take heed of your “slouching” position and will eventually yell at you if you do. This was all made possible
Going over some blogs, I found this curious post over at Tech Crunch. Presumably it seems to be something that was intended to be a joke, considering that the Tech Crunch HQ claims that sleep is not among the things that are in mind when working over there.
However, this brings us to think, sleep is indeed essential and although some may deny it, a few minutes of nap time does help in the productivity area, something shared by one of the commenters over there.
Everything started from a simple e
This is not the first time we have seen a multi-purpose but functional piece for the home but it seems that the Bed 42 was made for people with small spaces or the ones who require productivity.
The Bed 42 features a bed and a desk rolled into one. It is made entirely of wood where the integrated desk acts as a support for the weight of the bed frame. The Bed 42 stands to save you some space since it can become a sleeping solution and a workstation, depending on your need.
The Bed 42 was designe
Still wondering why a good night’s sleep makes a big difference? Well, perhaps this keynote from Jessa Gamble can somehow brief you on the reason why. Health is an immediate answer for this of course but if you want a more straight-to-the-point explanation, one of the things that will be affected is your body clock.
Sharing her research with some folks, Jessa bares how quality rest time is a key element to productivity and more importantly one’s health. Jessa bares that the sleeping p
It takes a big setback to somehow wake anyone up to reality and alertness and for Arianna Huffington, perhaps sharing a past ordeal or experience can be a wakeup call of sorts for people who deprive themselves of sleep.
Sharing how she suffered an accident traced all the way to lack of sleep, Huffington reiterates the importance of getting the proper amount of sleep. Apparently her talk was aimed to wake up the working class, most of which sacrifice sleep to supposedly provide some semblance of p
Here is another study that should let you know why naps shouldn’t be overlooked. The study was conducted at the University of California which found that sleeping before learning something is just as important as sleeping for about 100 minutes.
In a study done on 44 volunteers, study co-author Matthew Walker, explained that the volunteers who took a nap before undergoing a memorization test ended up with higher test points than their counterparts who did not take a nap.
Apparently thr
According to a new research, UK businesses are losing a fortune from people who have lack of sleep. About £280 per year per annually is being lost with workers waking up feeling tired and unrefreshed to perform their duties.
About over 27% of the working nation are suffering from this dilemma which doesn’t even include sick days too. Half of those questioned said they drag themselves into work feeling tired over 20 times a year.
It says shattered workers are 23% less satisfied in
Truckers are perhaps one of the groups that are hard hit by sleep apnea problems but Fusion Sleep hopes that their efforts would help bring down the high number of sleep apnea struck truckers. This will be tackled during the 2010 ITLC/NAFC Conference to reduce the effects and rising costs of sleep apnea issues.
Sleep Apnea, or any one of over 70 sleep disorders, are very costly diseases when left untreated, causing deteriorating health and increased hospitalizations, absenteeism a
Celebrities and workaholics are known to get less sleep in lieu of productivity but it seems that there is a price to pay for it as far as health is concerned. Among the leading problems include depression, a main element why people like Samantha Ronson choose to keep themselves busy rather than stay at home to relax and sleep.
But mind you, there is a down-side to all of this and it includes sacrificing health due to lack of sleep. Earning a fortune is one thing but the p
From prior posts, we have been narrating various news articles on how companies have recognized the value of sleep in employees. While some companies allow nap times, there may be an issue as far as allowing workers to make the most out of their sleeping privileges. Among them include sleeping at the very first second that the time for sleep comes.
Just like some sleep aids, here is something that can help an
