3/3 @MacCommsEllie says:
“if we need to clear our heads, stretch our legs or have a screen break, that’s what we need to do & will return feeling refreshed & more productive.
“Turning thinking from guilt to a goal helps prioritise my health and I feel & perform better for it”

2/3 instead of worrying that you’ve taken a slightly longer lunch break, feel proud that you needed that extra fresh air and time for yourself.
Our founder does this & says;
“I used to feel guilty for stepping away from my pc but it’s important to listen to our bodies & mind”

Many workers use tracking software such to allocate time spent working on specific clients & work tasks.
We recommend logging sufficient personal wellness time too.
We often feel guilty for taking time for self-care but it’s vital to support our mental & physical health 1/3
