A new year is always an opportunity to “start fresh”. People set resolutions. They attempt to create new habits and routines. They embark upon goals. They are also known to make purchases that they believe will better their quality of life. Here is our take on what the most important things you can buy in 2023 in terms of having a positive impact on your well-being.

A Proper Mattress

Humans spend one-third of their life in bed – sleeping, attempting to sleep, or resting. That equates to roughly 25-30 years! A mattress that provides support to your body and a restful night’s sleep is cruical to staying healthy. People are often tempted to get the best deal they can and sacrifice quality for price, but when it comes to mattresses, you should get the best mattress you can afford. We don’t sell mattresses but there are many reputable places in Denver to purchase a set. Do your homework and most importantly – try before you buy!

A Proper Pillow

When you’re in bed those 25-30 years, your head needs somewhere to rest. The type of pillow that’s best for you depends on several factors – the main one being what type of sleeper you are (back, side, front, or mover and shaker). Office Furniture EZ doesn’t sell bed pillows, but we recommend you find a reputatble brand and if possible, try before you buy. Also, remember to replace your pillow every 1 to 2 years. Pillows lose their support over time and they collect dust, allergens and germs. Breathe easy and rest well with regular pillow replacements.

Bedding Suited for a Comfortable Sleep

OK, now  you know the imporatance of the right mattress and pillow. These items go a long way toward getting the rest you need to recharge your body each night. The element people often forget is their bedding. Are you a flannel sheet person? Or do you prefer a cool crisp cotton? Maybe you like silk! Whatever your preference, your sheets should contribute to you getting hours and hours of uninterrupted sleep each night.

Shoes that Support Good Posture

Footwear is much more than a fashion statement. Your feet support your entire body, including your muscular and skeletal systems. They help to establish posture and the manner in which you walk. In addition, proper shoes ensure that the foot is free of blisters, calluses, bunions and hammertoes. These ailments may seem minor, but foot problems can causes day-to-day challenges in people of all ages. At Office Furniture EZ, we don’t carry shoes but we want to stress the importance of the right shoe to you. It’s best to invest in quality shoes that are professionally fitted for each area of your life (work, working out, leisure, hobbies and more).

An Ergonomic Office Chair

When you’re not in bed or walking in your shoes, you’re likely at work. Americans spend roughly one-third of their lives at work. If you are employed in a setting where you’re seated all day, you’re probably in an office chair. If you work at home for all or part of your week, you control the kind of office chair you have. Maybe you’re an employer who has team members at workstations. If that’s the case, you have a say in the kind of seating they use. An ergronomic office chair is crucial to health and wellness of the individual using it. Proper posture also helps with things like alertness, circulation and even mood.

You might be thinking, “Yes but a good office chair is very expensive.” The truth is that while a quality chair does require a bit of an investment, there are affordable models to be found. A chair that offers lumbar support, a sliding seat for proper leg position, adjustable arm rests, and the ability to swivel goes a long way toward a healthy day.

We offer chairs for all budgets and we allow you to try before you buy to ensure a proper fit. Visit our Denver showroom to check out what’s in stock and what’s available for special order. Put our experience to work for you!
