It is a good idea, I actually use a dresser for my workstation at home and I’m always standing like I was at my standing only desk at the office.

I find that it takes about a year to transition to standing only during work, especially when you’re used to thinking deeply while sitting, but it has been a huge help to my productivity and it dramatically lowers the energy barrier to go in to do some walking or a quick physical activity to keep the mind sharp.

Be more productive is nice, because then I just take all that extra time and use it to help around the house or go on walks outside myself.
