Healthy ways to work at your desk using the best digital helpers

March 14, 2018 by David Edwards

If you spend long hours in front of your computer as a part of your work, you certainly know how exhausting it may actually be.

Very often, people whose jobs involve physical work envy those who work at their desks, but there is really nothing to envy.

Physical injuries and other health issues emerge as a result of lengthy sessions in front of a computer. 

However, there are certain measures which may help you eliminate the stress and avoid major health issues.

In this post let us have a close look at the devices which may make your experience of working in front of the computer more enjoyable.

A good display

The first thing which crosses one’s mind is the display. Consider purchasing high-quality display to minimize the influence on your eyes.

Do not neglect this problem. Buying a high-quality display, however, is not the only thing to consider.

You need to have it and your system properly configured, so that your work causes minimum possible load on your eyes.

Make sure your eyes are comfortable with the screen resolution, brightness and font size. Make sure the mouse indicator is clearly visible and contrasts with the background.

Input devices

Another thing to consider is a comfortable mouse and keyboard. Those, who type a lot, are aware that too much worth of typing on a low-quality keyboard sometimes causes significant physical injuries in one’s hand.

As a result, you may be forced to discontinue your work for a significant period of time. This also to a certain degree refers to your mouse.

Make sure typing and operating your mouse do not cost you significant effort.

Make sure your hands are comfortable and relaxed to the maximum.

Buying a high-quality mouse and a comfortable keyboard, however, do not guarantee your safety.

You should also consider choosing a comfortable position or changing your position every so often in order to make sure your muscles don’t get stiff as a result of spending too much time in one position.

In this respect, it is handy to have a wireless keyboard and a wireless mouse.

Reasonable headphones

The same pretty much refers to the headphones. Many people enjoy listening to music while working or simply have to work with sound in one way or another. This is why it is important not to forget about wireless headphones of reasonable quality.

Choosing the right wireless protocol

When selecting your wireless devices you should consider the protocol which they will use to connect to your PC.

There are keyboards, mice and headphones which come with USB transmitters, which are plugged into your PC or laptop and then connect to the devices.

Those cover larger areas, but each one of them will occupy one USB port of your computer and consume energy, which may matter if you oftentimes work unplugged from the electric circuit.

Besides, many Mac computers do not have USB ports in the first place. This is why an alternative solution may appear to be much more practical.

This solution is connecting all the devices through a Bluetooth adapter for PC. Some PCs and laptops come with a Bluetooth adapter on board.

If your computer is not you may consider purchasing a USB Bluetooth adapter which is the easiest to plug into your computer.

Such an adapter will allow you to connect several Bluetooth devices to your computer.

Creating a wireless network

Another handy device to consider is a wireless router. It will allow you to connect to the global network without putting up with yet another cable on your desk.

Even the simplest WiFi routers allow connecting several devices simultaneously and provide them all with broadband Internet access, thus you may connect your PC, your tablet and your phone, and may you have any visitors around they will also easily connect to your hotspot.

What is important when picking the right WiFi router is not to disregard network security? Buy a router which is equipped with a brandmauer.

These simple tips will allow you to turn any room of your apartment into a modern mini office with minimum expenses and will allow you to be more comfortable when doing your work.

This will certainly positively influence your productivity and satisfaction.
