The Happy Commuter: Over 100 Ways to Improve and Enjoy Your Commute (ePub)

Commuting is bad for you. Really bad for you. If you commute for more than 45 minutes a day in each direction, you are more likely to be overweight, suffer from anxiety, stress, depression and social isolation. You are more likely to sleep badly and be exhausted, have high blood sugar (which could lead to diabetes), high blood pressure and cholesterol (which could lead to heart attacks) and experience neck and back pain. You may have lower life satisfaction and happiness than people who do not commute. Oh, and you are 40% more likely to get divorced.

There are 500 million commuters in the world. Something has to change.

• Get comfortable
• Identify your needs
• Stretch your mind
• Look after your body
