Ideas to bring balance to your workday

Working from home does have its perks. But it’s easy to fall into the habit of sitting at your desk for hours. So, it’s essential to make time for breaks that help you move more or that help you relax.

Keep yourself charged

Online meetings and the thought that you must get this one thing done can stop you from drinking enough water and having something to eat. So keep a carafe of water and healthy snacks on your desktop and keep yourself energised throughout the day.

Schedule breaks and self-care

Taking a break from your to-do list is beneficial to you and your work – it can do wonders for your productivity. Use an hourglass to create micro-breaks and savour a stretch. Or take a walk. You’ll soon enjoy feeling and working better.

Lift the mood

Listening to music while you work can put you in a positive mindset and help you be more productive and creative. If you’re missing company, use a Bluetooth speaker to switch from listening to a playlist to a podcast. Or keep your phone charged and nearby so you can stay connected to family and colleagues.

Create a calm corner

Carve out some time during the day for reflection and relaxation. Use cushions and throws to dial up the comfort level. And enjoy some screen-free time to sit with your thoughts.
