working from home.

 



Top 5 essential habits - work

1)    Keep good boundaries

Your home needs to remain associated with feelings of rest, play and love as well as work. Keep your work papers to one room, and lock work away at the end of the day if you are in a shared space –no work litter!

2)    Take regular breaks

Establish a routine that works for you. Have a start and finish time with regular breaks. The brain needs a break every 50-90 minute, and the body needs to move every 15 minutes  

3)    Audit achievements

Keep a running list of everything you have done each day and each week. This will help keep you motivated in quiet times and when you get bored.

4)     Don’t take it personally

If you feel criticised by an email, step away, take a break, be positive, and pick the phone up, rather than spend a long time drafting an email reply.

5)    Prioritise sleep

Memory, learning, cell repair and replacement, neurogenesis all happens when we sleep

 

Top 5 essential habits – ourselves

1)    Hydrate and eat healthy

 

Stress uses up essential vitamins and minerals in our bodies. We need to replace them regularly. Use chocolate, alcohol and sugar as treats, not essentials.

 

2)    Keep Active

Move, walk, dance, jump, skip, run, stretch every day

3)    Be kind

Your colleagues are also likely to feel low, tired, and demotivated at times. Be patient, kind and ask them how they are coping and feeling. Listen without judgement and share your own experiences to create mutual support. Say ‘thanks’ in the moment

4)    Keep connected

We all need to feel that we belong. Be proactive at creating and joining in with team meetings and virtual social events. If you know other colleagues are alone, reach out to buddy up on a daily basis.

5)     Ask for help

There is a huge swell of support and compassion from the majority of people, within and outside the workplace. If you are worried about yourself, or your colleagues, do not feel anxious, or judged about asking for help. Everyone would rather you asked for help than suffered on your own.
