Nancy,
I am so glad that you are putting up clear signals of work and relaxation in order to self-care! It is that multi-balls in the air that can take such a toll on us! I also look outside, beyond my computer, but to engage in seeing people on walks, bike rides, enjoying daily life so that I don’t feel so socially isolated during this time.
My biggest issue is working through lunches or after hours, thinking that I need to be available at all times! Keeping a set schedule really has helped me in the past few months allocate projects better–and be better to my body by having a healthy lunch prepared or dinner simmering in the slow-cooker. It helps me to be aware of deadlines more if I actually take 30 minutes to read and eat, and then refocus my attention.
Hoping to see how your self-care continues in the coming months! Tina
