What You Can Do for YOU if You’re Working from Home

These are trying times for everyone, and if you are working from home either by choice or requirement, there are some things that you can do to take advantage of the extra time you have. Lots of people and companies have posted some of what I have listed here, but Whip Mix can play an important role in your mental well-being.

But first, take care of yourself physically.

• Exercise several times a day for short periods to keep your blood flowing and bringing much needed oxygen to your body’s muscles. This will keep you energetic, awake and your mind clear.
• Start your day like you are going to work. Set your alarm for the same time you do every work day. Get up, shower and dress the way you would normally. This maintains your circadian rhythm and ensures that your body and mind is at its peak performance level.
• Don’t overeat, just because the refrigerator is close! It’s pretty easy to snack your way through the day when you’re at home.
• Get a good chair. If you’re not comfortable, you won’t work well.
• Separate yourself from your family. It’s very easy to start being a mom or dad while you’re at home during the day. Those duties are important, but they can easily distract you from the reason you are working from home.
• Get up and move around every 20-30 minutes or so. Get the blood flowing. You’ll be more creative!
• Take periodic breaks. Give your eyes a rest and your mind a break!
• Take advantage of the time and Learn! Learn! Learn! Whip Mix has provided a veritable smorgasbord of education opportunities for you to enhance your skills, enhance your value at the lab, and enhance your earning power.
