For everyone working from #homeoffice this winter the main challenge is to keep (your feet) warm without excessive heating costs.
Many of my clients are working from their home office at least part time. While they thoroughly enjoy their hot stone reflexology treatments and luxuriate feeling the hot stones on their feet especially during the winter – back at home they do feel the cold.
As a Hungarian living in Ireland I have had to come up with some tricks to keep warm, particularly as I felt cold for solid 4 years after moving to Ireland. Some of these tips are evident for me.
