A few quotes on health will inspire anyone to keep standing.

In our last posts we told you about why choosing a Xdesk adjustable height desk is a healthy choice, not only for your body, but also for the environment. Today we thought we’d expand a bit on that healthy theme.

Xdesk’s adjustable height desks are created with your health in mind. From the materials used in these sit to stand desks, all the way up the ergonomic design for your unique body. In short, these sit to stand desks are all about health. And so to celebrate that, here are some healthy and active quotes to start your day.

Sitting is being crippled. – African Proverb

I never heard of anyone stumbling upon something sitting down. – Charles F. Kettering

Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it. – Plato

Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person’s physical, emotional, and mental states. – Carol Welch

It is exercise alone that supports the spirits, and keeps the mind in vigor. – Marcus Tullius Cicero

If it weren’t for the fact that the TV set and the refrigerator are so far apart, some of us wouldn’t get any exercise at all. – Joey Adams

The greatest wealth is health. – Virgil

Our body is a machine for living. It is organized for that, it is its nature. Let life go on in it unhindered and let it defend itself, it will do more than if you paralyze it by encumbering it with remedies. – Leo Tolstoy

Life is like a tree and its root is consciousness. Therefore, once we tend the root, the tree as a whole will be healthy. – Deepak Chopra

A healthy body is the guest-chamber of the soul; a sick, its prison. – Francis Bacon

So as you go through your day, your week, and your life in general, keep these quotes in mind. Health is about more than maintaining a good physique, it is about balancing your mental and physical body, nourishing the soul and living. With an adjustable height desk, you’ll boost your energy and metabolism, you’ll allow blood to flow to the brain and limbs, and studies show, you can even increase your lifespan. So get to living.
