With a plethora of at-home exercise classes, yoga flows, and mindfulness sessions available online, there is definitely something that will work for you. Staying seated for that long isn’t the best for the body, so integrating movement into your schedule is a must. If you work virtually, you’re often bound to a desk and chair, staring at a computer for eight-plus hours a day. Take regular stretch breaks “with” coworkers 🤸 You can find your local meetup with a simple online search. Over the past few weeks, many have become reconfigured into virtual sessions - with shared mindfulness practices, topic-specific breakout sessions, priority setting, and (of course) some work. Chase Warrington, head of business development at Doist, found a group of remote workers in Valencia that meet weekly to work and then grab dinner.
Meetups specifically for remote workers are part support group, part work party, and part party party.
Or, at the very least, that social interaction you’re itching for. While physically attending a coworking space is out of the question for many at the moment, some have transitioned online - where members connect across industry for camaraderie, idea sharing, and guidance. Dani Garcia in business development at Doist, has found that going to a coworking space brings him into contact with people from the creative, cultural, and artistic sectors - who each offer unique perspectives. Create a crew at a coworking space 👯🏿♀️Įxtroverted Doisters swear by coworking spaces. 💡 Tip: Virtual coworking is a great way to supplement the time blocking productivity method - where you divide your day into chunks to focus on one task (or type of task). Recap your accomplishments and give virtual high fives. Work on your tasks separately, cameras on but microphones off. Schedule a time with your work partner (and don’t cancel). Virtual coworking sessions are one part socialization and one part accountability. But sometimes all it takes to stay on task is a buddy. Staying focused is a challenge for everyone - no matter your personality.
Take it up a notch by co-creating playlists with coworkers or recruiting your pet for a mini rave. Add excitement by scheduling regular dance parties (a perfect use of your five minute break with the Pomodoro technique) or playing instrumental music that fits your vibe. That’s one reason that muted, static environments can actually become distracting or distressing for extroverts. Studies have found that extroverts easily link feelings of pleasure with their immediate surroundings. Here are five more work-from-home tweaks to set you up for success. 💡 Tip: A solid routine can lead to productivity for remote workers.
