What routines do you have in place to maintain a healthy work-life balance? 🍏

Great question Bren! Although I strive to one day reach the morning routine levels of @mohamed_zakarya Currently, for work-life balance, I make sure to exercise 3-times a week (just what my plan has), eat healthily, and do something social on weekends if I find myself staying in lots during the week. Honestly, screen time is something I'd love to cut down, so I've begun reading more fiction, yet, I still find myself using my phone/laptop for more entertainment than I wish I did. I cut myself some slack though, it's winter where I live and a cold one, so there's not much to do outside (much more of a hot-weather person).

- I try not to work not in my work hours, unless its something very urgent - I don't open my computer for work on weekends - I exercise 3-4 times a week - I eat a healthy breakfast before I work so I can be more focused

Don't think about work when taking a break

Here's my daily morning routine: - Wake up at 6:00 AM - Meditate for 15 minutes - Get a snack - Go to the gym for 30 minutes - Get breakfast - Drink coffee and read a book - Listen to a 20 - 30 minutes podcast - Start working at 10 AM By doing that I get to stay mentally and physically healthy and be as productive as possible during the day. What about yours?

I make sure to squeeze in any form of exercise into my day, even if it's for 10 minutes

Dinner walk with my baby and coffee, evening walk with my dog 😊 that are my must have!

You must have a lot of self-denial and a strong character.

Tbh for me work is life and always used to feel weird when people used to talk about work-life balance and felt insecure that do I actually don't have a life and that's why there's no work-life balance. But I eventually understood your life is what you would want it to be and chasing that dream became a solution and not finding work-life balance. And since then my life has been waking up, getting fresh, getting to work, planning my next day and sleep.

In the morning, I like to wake up early & head to the gym. The adrenaline rush really helps me to wake up properly. I enjoy it & it keeps me productive & less cranky during the day. At night, I like to take out some time for myself - play some music, watch something fun & catch up with friends. Also, I avoid looking at any screen during my breaks to give my eyes a break too.
