5. Set the mood
Working from home can sometimes be a little too quiet - no more eye-rolling at colleagues’ loud conversations! Or, on the other hand, your other half might be chatting away on a team call in the next room, making it hard to concentrate. You’ll need a distraction, so put your favourite playlist on, which will make it easier to focus and go down your to-do list. If you’re struggling for musical inspo, reach out to your pals and ask who’s playing on their Spotify today!
6. Keep it 20 - 20 - 20
Working from home makes it more challenging to control your screen time. Between work, Facetime with friends and all the Netflix binging: it feels like we’re constantly online. Try and alleviate digital eye strain by sticking to our favourite eye health rule: for every 20 minutes spent looking at a screen, look at something 20 feet away, for 20 seconds. Even little things like getting up for a cup of tea, filling up your water bottle or watering the plants would be enough to break screen time up a little.
7. On active duty
Exercise is so important for our mental health - especially now, where we’re spending more time at home. Whether you’re an avid runner, a yoga enthusiast or you just love a walk around the block, don’t skip the recommended 1-hour daily exercise! Plus, it’s a really achievable goal in your daily routine that will make you feel accomplished: you’ve done your part, now let the endorphins do theirs.
