Healthy Home Work-Life
If you’re working part-time at home, it’s a great balance between the office and waking up just before clock-in time. I spent 2021 part-time working from home, and now in 2022, I’m home full-time. Here are seven tips I’ve discovered from having the office across the hallway.
- Keep the same work routine.
- Have clear, mental work/home barriers.
- Don’t lose contact with work colleagues.
- If needed, take smaller, regular breaks.
- Keep motivated, keep moving,
- Stay hydrated, keep a water bottle close.
- Let house-mates know your work hours.
What about you? How are you finding a healthy Home Work-Life balance? Reply, I’d love to hear from you.
