I work from home very often. It's productive but you risk not moving in the whole day. Remember to get up, and stretch, exercise or move in any form every once in a while. I know you know the theory, but applying it to oneself often proves difficult ;-) 

You are very right, Eva! I hardly work home except a few short email on ipad. Perhaps, full one day work from home is tried for the first time for more than 20 years. I didn’t/couldn’t go out because of continual calls. I will have to find a good way to separate work and personal part during work from home. Also, break every hour, as well. Any hints? 🙏😊 

You don't need to go out to get some movement. You may do some push-ups, skip on the place, stretch the main muscle groups... I walk at home when I am at the phone. You'll be amazed at how many steps that may add up! 

And I don't really separate work and personal life, I mix them all and do any of them at any time according with the context and needs. But that is just my preference, I am an ”integrator” - I integrate work and personal life. Other people are ”separators” and prefer to keep both worlds neatly insulated from each other. 

I am more on separator side. I tend to wear my wrist watch when going to work. From today, I decided to define the moment wearing watch as the beginning of work, and taking off the finish of work. ;) 

I realized I have been walking in a circle on the phone. :) With so many calls, it is believed I made 1.5 km in my living room. ;) 

Thanks a lot for the hint. This is why experience is important.
