If you're struggling to separate your work from your personal life, here are a few tips:

🌟Set boundaries. Decide when you will work and when you will not work. Stick to your boundaries as much as possible.

🌟Take breaks. Get up and move around every 20-30 minutes. Take a few minutes each day to relax and de-stress.

🌟 Take time for yourself. Do something you enjoy that doesn't involve work.

🌟 Spend time with your loved ones. Make an effort to connect with your family and friends on a regular basis.
