A rest period at midday can be various things, such as a short nap, a relaxing walk or getting some fresh air in a cosy place in nature. All of these things help you to find peace and quiet again.
Think about a rhythmic week:
Set clear working hours where you can be productive. Make sure you have enough
Make sure you have enough time off when you are “offline” and not available.
Make time for private activities, e.g. playing with the children, running, cycling, gardening or similar.
And don’t forget your own personal time to pursue your interests.
Decide when you will go to bed.
We are not made for constant stress. At some point, the body system goes on strike, leading to irritability and bad moods, weight gain, depression, burn-out, and much more.
