Here's how you can incorporate self-care practices into your daily routine for a better work-life balance.

A few things I've found helpful are setting boundaries to preserve my mental energy as well as taking time to get up and move, whether it be a quick walk around the office or stretching and taking a few minutes to reset my mind and body. Time blocking is a great practice that I have been implementing little by little. Do what feels right for YOU.

Recently a close friend of my shared that I have been working too hard and is worried about my well-being. Honestly work has been sucking away my energy till I found the power of starting each day with the right mindset. Starting the day with the right mindset will set you towards a successful day. 1. Be Thankful. The fact that we have the chance to breathe and do our best on a brand new day is a blessing by itself. 2. Self Affirmation. We are all uniquely talented in our own ways. Trust that we have what it takes to WIN the day 3. Pray. Start each day with God and let Him lead you in your thoughts, actions and words. 4. WIN. Focus on Whats Important Now. Just focus on 3 WINs each day.

1. Healthy breakfast, light exercise, meditation. 2. Stay hydrated, eat well, move regularly. 3. Consistent schedule, relaxing routine, sleep-friendly environment. 4. Practice gratitude, seek support, use relaxation techniques.

Depois de anos sem seguir uma rotina matinal, descobri que o essencial ao despertar é respirar profundamente e sentir a conex?o com um lugar familiar que me traz uma sensa??o de profunda gratid?o. Incluir uma caminhada de 30 minutos com meus filhos tornou-se parte da minha terapia pessoal para manter o equilíbrio mental.

I have created a reminder on my calendar that pops up hourly while I'm at my desk. It simply says walk. This reminds me to stand up, stretch, take a short walk, or even just some nice, long, deep breaths. It truly is refreshing and allows your mind a chance for a quick reset. But it's also very good for your body. We are not designed to sit all day. Sometimes, I have to skip the reminder; then I'll just snooze it until the next hour, and that's ok. If I'm not able to get up, it at least reminds me to take some deep breaths and/or do some stretched/exercises while sitting at my desk. There are several exercises you can do while sitting that are also helpful.

I agree, and in addition, stepping away from a tough challenge helped me a lot to find solutions. If a deadline is approaching and you try too hard to do something, but you got really stuck, step back and let go completely. I experienced that hours or days later, during an unexpected & unrelated situation you will have an idea that shows you a way to tackle whatever you wanted to do. People believe if they stop focusing on something important a disaster might happen but the opposite is the fact.

Something we do is 15-minute work-clothes-friendly stretching as a voluntary company activity. Sending out a meeting invite for this activity has been very helpful and many of the participants truly look forward to having that time to mingle with coworkers from other departments, find some movement, and then being able to return to work with a fresh mind.

às vezes, se me sinto estagnado no trabalho, percebo que minhas ferramentas mentais precisam de um ajuste. Quase como amolar uma ferramenta para que ela reproduza exatamente a sua melhor performance. Pra mim é efetivo realizar pequenas a??es em uma obra artesanato. Dedicar cinco minutos para esculpir minha nova prancha de surf por exemplo. Esses momentos s?o as ondas que me levam à felicidade por estar produzindo algo para o meu prazer futuro.

We weren't designed to sit all day. One way to help your mental health is to protect your physical health. Get up, stand up....stand up for your health. Walk around. When you take a break, try and take one with another person. If you can incorporate a physical activity all the better. At my old office they had a bochi ball court. This was perfect. Not so physical that we were sweating, but our minds were off work, we were engaged in banter, our bodies were getting blood flow, and our minds are able to refresh for the rest of the day. Studies show this is the key. Breaks with people + activity = better work.

"To everything, there is a season..." (Turn Turn Turn with King Solomon, Pete Seeger & The Byrds) and a time to "Slow down, you're movin' too fast..." Feelin' Groovy (Simon & Garfunkel).

Healthy food and exercise is key for any role at any industry. For a job such as product marketing coffee is a must to handle the daily duties.

Meal or snack prep is key to a healthy lifestyle. We seek out other foods on the go because they are convenient. So, make your healthy options convenient too. Wash your produce right when you get home and portion it out into bags or tupperware for snacking. Pack your lunch the night before, it's one less thing to do in the morning.

Escolher alimentos nutritivos e evitar pular refei??es ajudam a manter nossos níveis de energia e concentra??o elevados. Além disso, preparar refei??es saudáveis com antecedência ou optar por lanches nutritivos pode fazer toda a diferen?a no nosso dia a dia. Lembre-se, cuidar da alimenta??o n?o é apenas uma quest?o de saúde, mas também uma estratégia para melhorar nossa performance profissional. Alimentar bem o corpo e o cérebro é um investimento que traz resultados.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu BJJ... do it. Few exercises engage your mind and body at the same time like BJJ. You can't think about life or work when someone is trying to politely choke you to submission.

Rather than think about physical activities as their own separate things, try integrating them into your workday. Walk during calls you don’t need your computer for, use things like treadmill desks, and set timers to make sure you are never sitting in one place for more than an hour straight.

I remember visiting a customer regularly, mostly ending up in a meeting room without natural light. Once we decided to rather have a walk in a nearby park while we were having actually a very difficult issue to discuss. It was a great experience and I believe the physical exercise contributed to a more healthy discussion and to the positive outcome

Highly recommend joining a local rec team for a sport you enjoy playing. My rediscovered love for playing soccer has helped me immensely to balance my week and the pressures of work. When I'm playing a sport I love, it's almost impossible to think of anything else - your mind and body are both fully engaged. It gives me a much needed mental break, and helps me tackle my work day with much more enthusiasm and clarity.

I recommend physical exercise (best: group sports, but anything will do) with only a good playlist as a digital component. Or outdoor activities (depends where you live - might just be gardening), which can also be a bit of a workout.

Frequentemente, é apenas uma quest?o de reconhecer que minha intera??o com a natureza gera a energia e o estado de espírito necessários para a criatividade. A desconex?o total n?o é possível sem ela, pois naturalmente nossa rede neural demanda um mínimo de energia para operar de forma eficaz.

Desconectar-se regularmente de e-mails e mídias sociais permite que nossa mente descanse e se recarregue. Isso n?o apenas melhora nossa criatividade, mas também nos ajuda a resolver problemas de maneira mais eficaz. Aproveitar esse tempo para hobbies ou momentos com a família e amigos enriquece nossa vida pessoal e profissional.

Turning off your wifi at night is a game changer. Try it sometime. You'll realize how much better your life is disconnected and how much more sleep you actually get.

Everybody's rituals for good sleep are different. One common relation between sleep and specifically product marketing, though: In that function, you will juggle a lot of tasks simultaneously and rely on colleagues as well as outside experts. That can lead to stress, which can impact sleep, more than in many other corporate jobs. Therefore, make sure you have a well-defined "to do list" or "work schedule" each day. But don't overload it, it has to be well achievable. If you can cross all the tasks of the list by the end of the work-day, it is a lot easier to put work aside until the next morning and have a healthy rest.

- Have a set routine and checklist every day. This will ensure you know what you have to complete so it doesn't spill into your after-work hours. - Don't work in your bedroom. Keep your desk somewhere else - Track your sleep *if you're able to* - Try a digital detox an hour before bed --> no phones, no screens

Healthy diet is equally important...Limited caffeine intake is suggested...

Product marketing is at the intersection of several diverse groups (dev, sales, PR). It is very much to be expected that there will be some divergent opinions. Make sure to not take conflict personal. But, if your product marketing position doesn't have sufficient top management backing in your company and there are repeated conflicts that can't be resolved, either take drastic steps to change the situation or change the company. After all, in product marketing, it is to the largest degree your responsibility to have the product succeed.

Remember that your mental and physical health are paramount. Don't let the demands of product marketing compromise your well-being. Don't hesitate to reach out to colleagues, mentors, or friends for support when you're feeling overwhelmed. Sharing your experiences and seeking advice can help you navigate challenges and maintain balance. The key is to find a balance that works for you. Experiment with different self-care practices and identify what helps you recharge and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

1. **Mindfulness and Meditation**: Dedicate 10-15 minutes daily to mindfulness or meditation. This practice reduces stress, improves focus, and enhances emotional regulation. 2. **Physical Activity**: Engage in at least 30 minutes of exercise each day. Activities like walking, yoga, or cycling boost mood, energy levels, and overall health. 3. **Healthy Nutrition and Hydration**: Maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support bodily functions.
