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"--

On trails / by Moor, Robert(Environmental journalist),author.;
"From a brilliant new literary voice comes a groundbreaking exploration of how trails help us understand the world--from tiny ant trails to hiking paths that span continents, from interstate highways to the Internet. In 2009, while thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail, Robert Moor began to wonder about the paths that lie beneath our feet: How do they form? Why do some improve over time while others devolve? What makes us follow or strike off on our own? Over the course of the next seven years, Moor traveled the globe, exploring trails of all kinds, from the miniscule to the massive. He learned the tricks of master trail-builders, hunted down long-lost Cherokee trails, and traced the origins of our road networks and the Internet. In each chapter, Moor interweaves his adventures with findings from science, history, philosophy, and nature writing--combining the nomadic joys of Peter Matthiessen with the eclectic wisdom of Lewis Hyde's The Gift. Throughout, Moor reveals how this single topic--the oft-overlooked trail--sheds new light on a wealth of age-old questions: How does order emerge out of chaos? How did animals first crawl forth from the seas and spread across continents? How has humanity's relationship with nature and technology shaped world around us? And, ultimately, how does each of us pick a path through life? Moor has the essayist's gift for making new connections, the adventurer's love for paths untaken, and the philosopher's knack for asking big questions. With a breathtaking arc that spans from the dawn of animal life to the digital era, On Trails is a book that makes us see our world, our history, our species, and our ways of life anew"--
