The Benefits of a Fake Commute

The podcast episode explores the concept of a fake commute and its benefits. While one host commutes to work every day and realizes the impact of not being able to bike, the other host, who works from home, starts a daily fake commute to mimic the experience. The fake commute involves dressing up for the outdoors, walking for 15 minutes away from home, setting a timer, and then walking back for another 15 minutes. This routine provides the opportunity for morning sunlight exposure, mental reflection, listening to music or podcasts, and a smooth transition into work mode. The host finds the fake commute surprisingly enjoyable and recommends it as a morning routine for those working from home.
