Wellbeing and working from home

Whether we chose it or not, working from home is a reality for so many people right now. For some, that’s great news! More control and freedom to balance home and work lives. 

For others, the sanctuary of home has been invaded by work, the inbox constantly nagging for your attention making it impossible to switch off and enjoy bath time with the kids.
 Technology has meant the things we used to leave at work have literally been brought home with us.   But just because we can, doesn’t mean we should.  

As this way of working is forced on so many by circumstances beyond our control, how do we avoid feeling isolated, unsupported and overwhelmed? In this short session we’ll share a few some simple tips to look after your own wellbeing whilst working from home.
