The most taboo place to sit in the office

Dizziness, backache, constant sleepiness, restlessness, low efficiency... Are you troubled by these symptoms as you spend at least eight hours in the office every day? Perhaps you have violated some taboo in the office without realizing it.

Avoid sitting with your back to the door

The door is the only way to enter and exit the office, and it is the air vent of the office. If you sit with your back to the door and have nothing to lean on behind you, you will be in a subconscious state of tension for a long time due to the impact of mixed air from people coming and going behind you. Because people always suspect that someone is watching them, it is very easy to have confused thoughts and make wrong decisions. This situation is called "cold wind blowing on the back".

Solution: It is best to adjust the position of the desk and sit in a position that is not facing the door; if you really cannot adjust the position, choose a chair with a higher backrest.

Avoid sitting by the window in the aisle

The window is another air inlet for the office, especially those with pedestrian walkways outside. Not only will it bring in the miscellaneous air coming and going, but it will also bring in the footsteps and noise of pedestrians, affecting the concentration of the staff sitting by the window.

Solution: The desk should be as far away from the window as possible. If you must sit by the window, you should always cover the window with curtains.

Avoid sitting without support behind

According to traditional views, the first principle of good feng shui is "surrounded by mountains and water", which means having mountains behind you to support you will bring prosperity to you, and having water in front of you to surround you will bring you wealth. According to this principle, there must be a backrest behind the seat to be beneficial to the worker's career. The so-called "backer" in the office is a wall. If there is no "backer" behind you, it will be difficult to get a promotion and a raise!

Solution: The seat should be as close to the wall as possible. If you sit against the wall, it is best not to leave too much space between the wall and the seat.

Avoid being illuminated by mirrors

Many companies have a large cosmetic mirror, and some people who love beauty also like to put a mirror on their desks. It is human nature to love beauty, but if you are exposed to mirrors all day long, you will find that you often experience symptoms such as dizziness, wrong decisions, poor sleep, and physical weakness. In addition, modern buildings often use glass to cover the walls of the entire building. This is the most powerful "mirror" and is called "light pollution" in architecture. People who are often in the opposite building and are exposed to the direct sunlight will suffer many disadvantages.

Solution: If you are often exposed to large mirrors, it is better to stay away from them. If there is really no other way, you can grow some green plants facing the mirror to reduce the reflected light from the mirror.
