5 ways to beat the back to work blues

5 ways to beat the back to work blues
  It is natural to feel blue at the end of a holiday. Let’s help banish those blues with 5 ways to help you get back to a work routine.
  1. Ease on down the road
  •  Go back to work midweek, so you have a shorter working week.
  • Start with the small, easy-to-do tasks for a quick win.
  • Deal with emails in short sharp bursts, then do something else. This stops overwhelm.
  1. Plan your next holiday
  • It’s easier to work when you have something good to look forward to.
  • It reminds you why you work.
  1. Plan something for yourself
  • Take 15 mins out of your day and do something for yourself- Me time.
  • Me time gives you a break from the stress of work.
  • Me time refreshes the brain and helps you solve problems at work.
  • Me time allows you to think about what you personally need and want and how it will happen.
  1. Set some work goals
  •  Think about what you’d like to achieve and write them down.
  • Make a picture board with your goals and put it where you can see it every day.
  • Share them with a supportive person who can check in to see how you are going.
  1. Give
  • Do something nice for a friend or a stranger.
  • Volunteer for a group that needs support, for example, your local sports club.
  • Both the giver and the receiver benefit from giving.
  • When we help people, our brain lights up and produces feel-good hormones and we also feel connected to our community.
