Full to-do lists, an overflowing email inbox and a cell phone that rings incessantly? It can be quite a pain in the neck. Especially now that we spend so much time in the home office, the lines between work and play can become blurred, leading to added stress. Structure your day by consciously scheduling time slots reserved for specific things. Try to eliminate the word multitasking from your daily routine and work on one thing at a time rather than trying to do everything at once. And most importantly, schedule regular breaks.

Fat, empty carbs, industrial sugar – these ingredients are on your daily menu? Then do this now: Take a big red pen and cross them out. Switch to complex carbohydrates from whole grains, plant-based protein from legumes, and healthy fats from avocado and nuts for more energy in your day. The more colorful your plate, the more energy your meal will give you.

The phrase “Stay hydrated!” is on everyone’s lips – and not without reason. An adult should drink two to three liters throughout the day. It is important to know that coffee and soft drinks cannot be added to this amount. This is because they dehydrate the body. Water and unsweetened teas should be. If that’s too boring for you, you can pimp your water with all kinds of tasty ingredients. How about refreshing mint, cucumber or tasty citrus fruits, for example?

We all know the excuses our mind keeps reeling off when we’ve resolved to do a round of exercise. Just try to ignore them and incorporate exercise into your daily routine. How about a half-hour walk during your lunch break? It’ll clear your head, recharge your batteries and say goodbye to that afternoon energy slump. No time for a lunch break? Then get over your inner stubbornness after a day at the office and get moving. It has been proven that people who incorporate enough exercise into their daily routine are more efficient and more resistant to stress. Your body will thank you!
