Well at work : creating wellbeing in any workspace / by Sternberg, Esther M.,author.;
"Until recently, few of us thought much about the effects our physical workspace might have on our minds and bodies. COVID-19 changed all that. Suddenly, the office became a danger zone where crowded rooms, contaminated surfaces, and poor ventilation systems increased our risk of infection. Yet it wasn't until we returned to the office after a prolonged period of working from home that most of us became acutely aware of how the environment around us was adversely affecting our energy levels and mood, our ability to focus, and even our physical health. The good news, says integrative health and mind body science design pioneer Dr. Esther Sternberg, is healthy workplaces need not be a luxury. Through groundbreaking research and a trove of insightful stories, Well at Work reveals how the physical environment can either impair or improve our wellbeing across seven domains of integrative health -- stress, sleep, movement, relationships, nutrition, spirituality, and the air we breathe. Whether we work in a typical office building, a co working space, or in our spare bedroom turned home office, Dr. Sternberg shows how we can all design or adapt our workspace to enhance our comfort, productivity, health, and happiness, and to help us be -- and stay -- well at work"--

Things we hide from the light / by Score, Lucy,author.;
"Welcome back to Knockemout, Virginia, where the heroes are broody, the heroines are sassy, and everyone's got a secret. Nash Morgan was always known as the good Morgan brother, with a smile and a wink for everyone. But now, this chief of police is recovering from being shot and his Southern charm has been overshadowed by panic attacks and nightmares. He feels like a broody shell of the man he once was. Nash isn't about to let anyone in his life know he's struggling. But his new next-door neighbor, smart and sexy Lina, sees his shadows. As a rule, she's not a fan of physical contact unless she initiates it, but for some reason Nash's touch is different. He feels it too. The physical connection between them is incendiary, grounding him and making her wonder if exploring it is worth the risk. Too bad Lina's got secrets of her own, and if Nash finds out the real reason she's in town, he'll never forgive her. Besides, she doesn't do relationships. Ever. A hot, short-term fling with a local cop? Absolutely. Sign her up. A relationship with a man who expects her to plant roots? No freaking way. Once she gets what she's after, she has no intention of sticking around. But Knockemout has a way of getting under people's skin. And once Nash decides to make Lina his, he's not about to be dissuaded ... even if it means facing the danger that nearly killed him"--
