Happy Feet Lead to Happiness at Work
Happy Sunday from Finland!
We experienced our first frosty night of the season last night. Up north, temperatures dropped to -7°C (19°F), and here in Helsinki, it hit -1°C (30°F).
It's a sure sign that summer is officially behind us. And can you believe it? Christmas is just 93 days away (gulp!).
As if on cue, tomorrow kicks off the International Week of Happiness at Work (September 23-27, 2024). Perfect timing, right?
We spend a huge portion of our lives at work, which has a big impact on our overall well-being. Focusing on happiness at work can truly make a difference. Did you know that 27% of employees experience one or more bad workdays each week? Despite growing attention on happiness at work, there’s still a big gap between how happy we feel at work and in our personal lives.
That's unfortunate, given how much time we spend working! When we’re happy at work, it positively affects the rest of our lives. And happiness isn't just important for individuals—it’s also crucial for organizations. Happier employees are healthier, more engaged, collaborate better, and are more productive. So why wouldn’t we prioritize happiness at work?
But what can you do as an individual? A great place to start is by reflecting on these five key questions:
5 Questions to Boost Happiness at Work:
What activities at work energize me, and how can I do more of them?
How do I contribute to my team’s success, and am I getting recognized for it?
What small changes could improve my work environment or relationships?
Do I have a healthy balance between work and personal life?
How can I support my colleagues to make our workplace happier?

We at VIBAe want to take this one step further (pun intended). We want to ask you: How do you feel after work?
Do your feet hurt? Do you need to spend your precious free time with your feet up? Does the throbbing in your feet keep you from falling asleep?
At VIBAe, we believe your comfort shouldn't end when you clock out. Your shoes should support you, not just during the workday, but long after it's over. After all, if your feet are uncomfortable, it affects your overall well-being. So why spend your valuable free time recovering from the day when you could be enjoying it instead?
Let us help you take that step toward happiness. And speaking of happiness, did you know that Finland has been voted the happiest country in the world for several years in a row? We like to think we know a thing or two about what it takes to create joy and comfort—starting from the ground up!
Whether you're at work or unwinding afterward, our shoes are designed to keep you feeling good, every step of the way. After all, happiness at work starts with feeling good on your feet!
Take care of yourself,
