In this short TED talk, business innovator Nilofer Merchant offers a simple but compelling idea to reduce the hazards of a sedentary lifestyle and to improve your personal health and well-being. When we heard this talk, we were struck by how easy it would be to adopt in many workplaces, too.

Listen to Merchant explain how it made a difference in her life.
