Add structure to your day
To
prevent burnout, Dr. Rabin recommends adding the following tasks to your day and explains how they can benefit you:
1. Start your day with a productive task.
This could include making your bed, doing a breathing exercise, or meditating.
Our bodies love routine, particularly routine that enriches our lives, he explains, and the more we create structure in our lives, the more space we create to focus and recover.
2. Create a designated work space.
Even if you live in a small space, creating a separate work zone that you can go to and walk away from everyday helps in supporting a better life balance.
With this space, you can train your mind to shift in and out of work mode.
3. Take lunch breaks.
Working from home physically and mentally blurs the line between personal and professional lives, he explains,
so setting up a time to eat lunch and step away from your desk is important.
4. Turn off your screen
It's can also help in improving your sleep and minimizing stress.
