Create a space to refresh your mind
It's important to change your mood when you're spending more time at home than usual. Let's create an environment where it is easy to switch on and off at home, relax and refresh, even during times of teleworking.
A living room can be a space to relax, to unwind, or be a place to enjoy your hobbies.
Relax
Destress after a long day of work. If you can't stop thinking about work, or even can't stop to work, some simple routines might help. Close the laptop, keep work chat to a minimum and plan some time off just for yourself.
Lean back and relax
Switching off after work can be a hard task. Let's put your laptop, phone, and other distractions aside, and simply enjoy life on the sofa. Find out how to find mindful moments in your busy schedule or read on how to reconnect with yourself.
No more work talk
It's okay to sit down and talk about work with your family or partner, but don't forget to let go and enjoy other things as well. If it's hard to chat about something else, set yourself a time, and then switch to another topic.
Time to rest
Do you have a hard time keeping up with your work schedule? Are you always working late? Maybe it is time to put up a clock, so can keep track of your time. Create a schedule for yourself, so you can't forget when to take time off.
Keep track of your schedule
It can ease your mind to keep track of your appointments and to-dos. No matter what you have to organize, post-it notes, bills to pay, or meeting notes, a memo board can help with that.
Unwind after a long day
Letting go of work, stress, and schedules sound easier than it is. Make some after-work plans for yourself, like calling your friends, have a movie night, or enjoy a drink in your livingroom.

Create a reading habit
The best way to let go of thoughts is to immerse yourself in a great book. What better way to end a day than yo lean back in your favorite chair and a fantastic book. Don't know how to organize all those books? Take a look here.
Practice your green thumb

Declutter to show off!
To start a new hobby, you have to create a space where you can keep and maybe display your favorite items. Let go of old things and create this special place for your new love. Learn how to create a gallery wall in your own home, or get inspired by other collectors' shelves.
Create an Oasis for yourself
Do you think it's selfish to spend time alone? Think again! Recharge and energize, spend some quality me-time, and start new projects and hobbies with fresh energy, motivation, and creativity.
