Have an empty office or a room crammed with useless storage stuff? One of the easiest and most impactful things you can do for your team is to transform it into a rejuvenation room.

This "zen den" is a room dedicated to quiet and rejuvenation—it's a place within the office to "get away" from work and take a breather. This will give your team the extra juice they need to be that much more productive, patient, healthy, and creative. A rejuvenation room can be used to:

• Take a power nap
• Let off some steam
• Regain focus, meditate, or simply think
• Pump breast milk (be sure to provide a privacy sign for the door)

It doesn't have to be fancy. Small is fine, windows are optional, and the less decor the better. If you want to, you can easily spice it up by painting it a calm color, adding a foam roller or massage chair, or including a couple of plants, nature pictures, a soft-lit lamp, a cozy blanket, or optional "calm" music.

A few best practices we've found over the years:

• Because everyone's scent preference is different, don't allow candles or incense.
• Have it available for 15-30 minute increments with an exterior sign-up chalkboard.
• Don't allow electronics in the room (except for a non-clicking timer).
• Have a sign that indicates occupancy and requests privacy.
• Keeping out food keeps the space crumb-free.

Consider trying out a pilot of a rejuvenation room. It doesn't take much work, but it can have a truly huge impact for your team.
