How to Wind Down After Work Without Leaving Home

Shutting down your computer doesn't always mean your mind switches off. Try these low-effort ways to unwind after a remote workday — no need to go anywhere.

1. Tea & Silence

Make a warm cup of herbal tea. Sit by a window. Just 5 minutes of stillness can reset your energy and calm your nerves.

2. Guided Breathing

Use a 5-minute YouTube breathing video or phone app. Breathe in deeply through your nose and out through your mouth. It works wonders for mental clarity.

3. Change Your Clothes

Switch out of work clothes, even if it’s just into a clean tee. It signals your brain that the workday is over.

Remember: Little rituals can make a big difference in separating work from rest when you work from home.
