I will be very precise and clear
Here are some tips for you:
1. Listen to your favourite music
2. Read books
3. Do gardening
4. Try to go out like park, spend time with your friends
5. Go shopping!
6. Do your skincare routine and some body care!
7. Get enough sleep
8. Write your thoughts in a diary
9. Try out new different recipes 😋
10. Last but not least! Say to yourself positive affirmations before going to bed and drink lots of detox drink!
Your life. Work is important but so is self care, quiet time, family, friends having fun etc
How strongly is your current work situation connected to your survival needs?
What about your work is addicting for you?
First of all if you have some work give it a proper time. Do not ever stress about work. Get some relaxation by listening to music (soft). Or doings things according to your hobby etc.
And if you are tired to do the whole work at the same time; just divide it.
For example if you have work of umm 1hour then divide it in 4 different 15mins.
Work for 15 mins take a break again work for 15 mins and break and so on..
Hope you liked my opinion. If you get questions in future then feel free to ask 😀
If this does not work for you,then the answer is most likely in your actual job. is the job too stressful? How many hours? Is the pay enough for your lifestyle? Depending on your answers, you should try to change what is wrong with your work plan in general so that you have enough freetime and do not always come to home completely tired and empty.
It’s okay if you still have thoughts about work, if you did good in your work then why do you have to worry? If you didn’t and wanted a break go and ask.
It’s you who have to decide (since it’s your life🙂).
Or maybe watch a movie
Planning about your work out reflecting in your work is good, however if you are thinking about the social environment at work then you should stop it immediately.
If you get distracted by the thought of work then start doing some other activity. Plann out some other work if you are thinking about your work.
Such as you can skill more yourself in which you are more happy and enjoying..
Catch yourself thinking about work, either note it down or say “im going to trust my future self to worry about that”
When I do leave things unfinished though. I just remember that I did everything that I could for that day, and that not everything has to be done in one day.
Close your eyes and focus on your breathing. Notice how your body responds to every natural movement. Scan your body mentally, from toes to head.
Thought will come, don’t judge yourseld, don’t allow any negative thought. It’s normal. It takes time and practice to quiet our mind.
Whenever thoughts come, think about a river or a creek, and place the thoughts as if they were leaves floating. Let them go and enjoy that moment of silence and peace.
Set an alarm if needed, but in the meantime just quiet your mind and maintain your focus on your breath.
When the alarm goes on or you stop for any reason, start to come back to normal by slowly moving your extremities. Toes, fingers. Then your neck. Twist to the right side if laying down, and return to seated position.
I hope this exercise brings you peace and you can implement it as needed.
Namaste.🙏
Learn about your own brain what things, actions or routine triggers thoughts about work? Maybe try not putting your laptop where it’s
accessible so easily that you forget about your family. Try talking to your co-workers or manager about how you also have a life outside of work maybe you could ask them that kindly do not send you emails outside of work hours or expect them to be answered during work hours. Taking out special time for friends, family and yourself that is purely dedicated to only friends or family or you can help!
1) I work from home so I have two accounts on my computer. One is only for work purposes and once my shift is over, I will sign out and switch to my personal account. This gives me a virtual feeling of leaving the office.
2) I also like to close my eyes and imagine putting ‘work’ into an imaginary box. I then envision myself taping up that box, and putting it in a cupboard and locking it. It sounds silly, but it works! If you have intrusive thoughts, I like to imagine kicking that box off a cliff never to be seen again.
In the end no matter what you work and how you feel remember that there is some one is wrst than you
Have a hobby where its relaxing and you can avoid thinking about anything, going to the cinema once a week, colouring in book, painting, playing games, learning a new skill (photography), pottery. Main thing is, your life doesn’t revolve around work.
Keep concentrated on that specific moment, relax your mind and your body. Try to feel the energy and what your body try to tell you. Keep your mind free of thinking for 2/3 minutes.
Than, when you’ll feel ready start to think about you passion, start to think about few thing that could relax yourself and feel you happy! I think that could be a nice start of a new journey!
2)By organizing plan when
3)By asking question that it may waste by thinking instead of doing
4)By Doing it so no tension at all
5) By staying busy
I hope it will help you
But if you don’t take action ofcourse it’s not work at all 😌
Always thinking about work is gonna interrupt your quality of work as you’re always stressing about it and not focusing on what you can and cannot do peacefully.
Along with this reducing caffein intake also helps as taking huge amount of caffein helps cause stress. And the main thing right now is getting rid of stress.
Lack of sleep due to work also interferes with the human’s system of Functioning.
The more you think about work, the more stress you get related to it.
Further, talking to a friend also helps as you feel as if you’ve lowered some burden which was sticking w you for days.
Overthinking causes anxiety and yeah- it’s pretty harmful and shii
