Working from home (WFH) is the norm for many Brits \u2013 26% do it at least some of the time*.<\/span><\/h3>\n

But it\u2019s easy to fall into a rut when your domestic and professional lives play out in the same location.<\/p>\n

When this happens, simple tasks take longer to complete, and your mental health can suffer.<\/p>\n

So, how can workers stay productive while still enjoying the benefits of WFH? Here are three tips.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important to have a healthy, happy and productive space to work in.\u201d \u2013 Oliver Heath, sustainable design expert \u2013 House Beautiful<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Review your WFH space, making lighting and seating your priorities.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s best to work in a room with lots of natural light, so think carefully about where you position your desk.<\/p>\n

Try a full-spectrum light bulb if your lighting isn\u2019t up to scratch. These emulate natural lighting more closely than a standard bulb.<\/p>\n

Also, ensure your work chair is comfortable and ergonomic (bad posture can lead to neck and back problems over time).<\/p>\n

\u201cSuccess is having consistent work habits.\u201d \u2013 Peter J. Daniels, entrepreneur and author<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Establishing a straightforward work routine will help you power through your daily to-do list.<\/p>\n

Start with a walk to get your blood and endorphins flowing, and then change out of your comfy clothes into something more business-like.<\/p>\n

While many people joke about WFH in PJs or onesies, experts, such as careers author Annie Ridout, believe dressing like you mean business helps you focus on business.<\/p>\n

Take regular breaks throughout the day, where you get up from your desk and walk around. Always take a proper lunch break, and do not slurp soup over your laptop.<\/p>\n

Signal the end of the day by tidying your desk and packing away work equipment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI find I am much more creative when I\u2019ve taken care of myself.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 Arianna Huffington<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Our work lives are heavily influenced by what we do in our leisure time, so don\u2019t overlook the importance of exercise, sleep and diet.<\/p>\n

Neuroscientist Wendy Suzuki says exercise is one of the best ways to boost memory, focus and decision-making. She says three to four 30-minute sessions per week are enough to deliver real benefits.<\/p>\n

Aim to get about eight hours of sleep each night and carefully monitor how much tea, coffee and booze you consume.<\/p>\n

Caffeine and alcohol can interfere with your sleep and leave you feeling sluggish the next day.<\/p>\n
