1/ Gogh to your happy place.
You work too much. I mean, look at you-you're reading a magazine about work right now! Unplugging can be helpful, which is why you may find Lego Ideas The Starry Night [$170; lego .com] a meditative delight. Reconnect with the Legos you loved as a kid, but now with a grown-up twist. And when you're done, you can display it behind you for all your stressed-out coworkers to enjoy on Zoom calls (which probably could have been emails).
2/ A dock that declutters.
Tidy up your desk while reducing neck strain. The 11-port Anker 675 USB-C Docking Station [$250; anker.com] is a 21.26-by-8.66-inch stand that elevates a monitor by about 3.5 inches, with connections built into one leg to handle USB-C, USB-A, SD cards, and an audio jack. Underneath is a cable management system to plug in less frequently used ports, like HDMI and video connections to a laptop. The shelf has a wireless charging pad for a phone. When your day is done, just push your keyboard and mouse underneath. All clear!
