How to maintain a balance between work and health? 

 

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused a variety of troubles in people’s lives; some have experienced physical health issues, while others have been overwhelmed by mental health issues. 

More than half of India’s employed professionals, according to a recent LinkedIn research, are anxious at work. According to the report, this is a problem that affects 55% of working professionals. From July 31 to September 24, 2021, India’s general workforce confidence remained stable with a composite score of above 55, but the recent 18 months have negatively impacted the mental health of working professionals in the country, according to the survey answer of 3,881 professionals.   

Professionals must maintain a healthy mental lifestyle in order to boost their productivity and growth.

For thousands of years, people have been meditating. Meditation was created to aid in the comprehension of life’s sacred and mystical powers. Meditation is widely utilised these days for relaxation and stress reduction.

  Exercise 

Exercise causes your body to release feel-good hormones like endorphins, which can help you relax. Stress can also cause you to tense your muscles subconsciously, which exercise can help you release. 

Here are a few examples of workouts: 

Traversing a block 

Jump jacks 20 times 

10 minutes of quick running 

Organize 

When you’re overwhelmed by the number of chores you have to complete or deadlines you have to meet, stress might set in. Concentrate on making things easier for yourself and seeing each work as a competition. Prioritizes what needs to be done first and determines what can wait. 

Making a to-do list is a good idea. 

Wardrobe organization 

Keeping things in order 

Don't put it off until the last minute. 

Craftsmanship 

Many people who are artistically inclined believe that making art is a great stress reliever. Making art may be a release for tough emotions, a distraction from stressful ideas and experiences, and a chance to enter a state of flow that can be restorative.
