Here are the things that can happen to you when you don't rest while working from home, shared by Dr. Subhash Jangid, Director and Head of Department, Fortis Arthritis Institute, Fortis Memorial Research Hospital, Gurugram.
Reduced ability to concentrate
Many people think that rest will interrupt work, but in reality, it is completely opposite. According to research from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign (USA), even short breaks can help improve concentration and work performance. Conversely, working continuously without rest can cause brain stagnation and significantly reduce productivity.
Increased risk of neck and back pain
Sitting in an open position for long periods of time can easily lead to spinal problems. If you do not take a break in the middle of work, the anti-gravity muscle groups in the back will quickly become tired, causing pain and stiffness.
In addition, neck pain is a common condition that can recur due to incorrect working posture. Therefore, take time for simple stretching exercises during the day to keep your body flexible and healthy.
Prolonged feeling of fatigue
Frequent fatigue can stem from not spending enough time to rest the body and mind. Working continuously without a break can make you exhausted, negatively affecting both your physical and mental health.
Le is a psychopath at work
When there is no clear separation between work and rest, you can become psychologically dependent on work - a sign of imbalance in life. Regular " disconnections" help the brain recover, while improving the quality of life.
Risk of social isolation
Skipping meals with family or refusing meetings with friends causes many people to fall into a state of isolation. Many people who have worked at home for many months are facing psychological problems due to lack of social interaction and a feeling of being away from the office environment.
serious impact on vision
Your eyes are stuck to a computer screen for hours at a time, which can put stress on your eyes. The main reason is constantly working in front of screens and the lighting system is not suitable at home. This condition can lead to headaches and even change the color of your glasses.
