About
Glossier is a new look to office work. Work in a standing position brings benefits beyond calorie counting, it's about a more aware state of mind and usage of one's body. Working in a standing desk reduces stress and makes active what ones were still.

Quality of life at work
In terms of health, standing up activates blood circulation, allowing better oxygenation of the brain, strengthening the heart and avoiding cardiovascular problems.
A Harvard University study with results published on the Harvard Health Publishing blog reveals that calorie burning is greater in people who work standing up. In other words, alternating between standing and sitting contributes to diabetes prevention, weight loss and overall health.
Finally, working while standing reduces the risk of cancer, especially colon and breast cancer. The quality of life at work also improves exponentially when professionals work standing up. Standing inhibits sleep, which generally accompanies professionals who spend many hours in front of the computer, especially in a home office.
In short, working while standing requires a greater expenditure of energy, allowing the body to rest better during the night.
