• Have a routine – implementing and sticking to a daily routine is key when maintaining a work-life balance. Get dressed, go for a walk, and prioritise your jobs. If you normally go to the gym, supplement your gym routine with at home
bodyweight exercises or strength training.
• Chose a workspace – find a suitable working space away from the main home area and your bedroom, if possible. Once you’ve completed your workday, resist the urge to check in with any professional obligations until you begin work again.
• Take regular breaks and exercise – every 25 minutes or so get up, stretch and breathe. Perhaps walk up and down the stairs or pop outside to move your body. Use this time to ensure you are also drinking water.
• Communicate regularly with your colleagues – We all need to talk to others, even when physical contact isn’t possible. Use technology like Zoom or Skype, so you can see how people are and interact in a more personal way. Consider booking weekly calls with friends and family so you have regular catch ups to look forward to.
