Back to work

You've gotten completely out of gear, have almost forgotten how to log in to your email and the lunch boxes are at the bottom of the drawer.
You've had plenty of time to think about everything other than the big tasks at work this fall, the kids' new gymnastics season, and the weekly meal plans that need to be made. And boom - it's back to everyday life. The summer holidays are over, and it's time to once again make work and free time work together.

A mindful work/life balance, where the calm from the summer vacation, the lowered shoulders and the smile on your face are preserved, is the dream.
And why not make an effort to make that happen?

Focus on the positive in your everyday life and make sure you get off to a good start. Below are some of the things we appreciate:

• Think about the good summer holiday memories that lift your spirits and infect those around you.
• Your sweet colleagues.
• Make an extra good packed lunch and treat yourself a little.
• Drink enough water to keep your body well hydrated - as an added bonus, it also gives you more beautiful skin. Here at the office, we all use a water bottle that we refill several times a day - we love our new fancy 10th anniversary bottle. That way you remember to drink, and as a bonus, it keeps the water refreshingly cool.
• Bring a healthy snack for the trip home so you don't run out of energy before the wolf class. A rice cracker with chocolate, a piece of fruit or a protein bar, for example.
• Run or take a walk in the fresh nature in the evenings or whenever you have time. Fresh air is always good, and the bright late summer evenings are still among us.
• Breathe. Give yourself a moment to breathe deeply into your belly and send fresh oxygen to your head.
• Grab a glass of cool white wine and soak up the last of late summer.
• Sort through your wardrobe and sell or give away what you don't use.
• Make sure you have some good basics in your wardrobe so you feel comfortable in the morning before you head out the door. We've made a collage below with our back-to-work favorites that you might find inspiring.
