Remote work has become the norm as the coronavirus pandemic continues, but if you’re getting worn down by continuing to work where you sleep, you’re not alone.
Healthline reports burnout is “a state of mental and physical exhaustion that can zap the joy out of your career, friendships and family interactions.”
1. Set boundaries and limits
It’s important to take breaks throughout the day and also know when to shut off your laptop for good.
“Just because your boss knows you’re home doesn’t mean you have to be constantly available to them,”
2. Get some exercise
Along with taking breaks, it can be beneficial to get outside and go for a brief walk to incorporate some movement throughout your day. Even short workouts can prove beneficial.
3. Establish a schedule and make necessary adjustments
If you’re balancing working at home with family, you may need to change your work schedule so you can focus more on tasks and have time for your loved ones. Orbé-Austin said if you’re able, talk to your boss about adjusting your work hours to have more flexibility.
4. Ask for help
Sometimes, you may be so deep into a project or assignment that you may not be aware if you’re drifting toward burnout. Have your friends and family check in on you and you can check in on them, too.
5. Take a day off
Perhaps you’re already experiencing burnout. If so, a day off may be in order. Do your best to take the day to relax and do something completely unrelated to work. Practice a hobby, meditate or catch up on a favorite TV show.
