    Covid fatigue, a feeling of emotional exhaustion, has become a common complaint of people across the nation right now. Now, in the face of Covid fatigue, add the mid-afternoon energy slump and one could feel their eyes already drooping, their drive to get on with the day slowly fading.
    The energy crash, although natural, that you experience around 2-3 pm after having a meal hits differently. It kills your motivation to work, eats into your overall productivity, and makes you want to hit the bed while the sun still shines bright outside.
    But, the good news is that it’s fixable.
    As I dread the afternoon energy crash and gear up after taking a quick ten minute walk to finish this article by 3 pm, let us together look at 7 simple ways to shake off the sluggishness of afternoon slump.
    Hydrate Hydrate HydrateJust in case mentioning ‘hydration’ once isn’t enough to remind you to have water throughout the day, we put three.
    When it comes to keeping yourselves hydrated, there is no substitute for water. Dehydration often adds to fatigue and hence it’s imperative to have enough water during the afternoon.
    If you find regular water boring, try making detox water using sliced cucumber, lemon, fruits, and herbs to switch things up.
    And if looking for some hot options, a subtle spicy kick of a cup of herbal tea would be equally good enough to bring back that motivation to work.

    Grab A Quick Healthy SnackGive your body a boost of energy with a quick bite of a healthy snack. 
    While something sugary and processed may sound tempting and easy, it would be best that you keep from it and consider something rich in protein.
    Pick something that’s natural or minimally processed like yogurt, a cheese cube, a handful of nuts, or a spoonful of the ever-classic combination of chocolate and peanut butter, that will satiate your cravings and keep your energy levels high. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1482__
    Make Yourself A Cup Of TeaMaking yourself a cup of tea is an immersive ritual and a great way to step away from work and reset. 
    The process of brewing keeps you active, alert and allows a chance to indulge in the aroma therapy of varied flavours, herbs, and spices. 
    It is also advisable to have a cup of tea half an hour after having your meal to kick away the sluggishness and keep you wide-eyed. Go for green tea, herbal options or stick to the classic Masala chai to perk your mood up.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1483__
    Stretch & Get MovingIndulging in mild exercising and stretching is the quickest way to boost your energy. Getting your blood pumping also activates your mind.
    Practice stretching to relax your muscles, take a brisk walk, or get on a call with a colleague to discuss the tasks at hand for the week. 
    You can also simply turn up the volume, plug in the air dopes, put on your go-to dance song and do a quick jig to uplift your mood and energy.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1484__
    Step Outside & Take Time Off ScreenGive your eyes a break, and step outside in an open space for a bit to expose yourself to the sunlight. 
    Exposing yourself to the sun will tell your internal clock that it’s still day-time, prepare your mind to align with your body clock and the energy slump will slowly fade away.
    Also, try splashing cold water on your face or simply spray some rose water to press that refresh button.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__813__
    Prioritise Your TasksIf an energy slump in the afternoon is a pattern with you, try to utilise that time for tasks that require less mind and energy.
    Finish the most creative tasks that require high-energy in the morning and keep the afternoon for tasks that are more mechanical like sending out mails, updating the daily sheets, checking official groups etc. 
    You can also use this time to plan the second half of your day.
    Take A CatnapAnd if the energy crash makes you feel like you must sleep, then by all means you should. Many people find a quick nap helpful to replenish the energy and get on with the remaining day better. 
    But, remember to keep it short, an ideal nap time should be 20 minutes, and set an alarm because you don’t want to wake up feeling groggy with your boss’ call.
    The Bottomline An afternoon energy slump is only natural and has got to do with our circadian rhythm (sleep-wake) cycle that roughly repeats every 24 hours, so don’t blame yourself for feeling a sense of low energy. 
    Just follow these simple steps to put yourself back on track, without feeling guilty.

    You’ve been consistent with your exercise and diet but somehow, still fail to see good enough results. Well, there’s a reason for it. 

    When it comes to health and fitness, we often get stuck with what we eat and don’t focus on how we eat. 
    No matter what your goal is, eating the right food in the right way is the first step. 
    Here are seven common bad eating habits that you need to break for a healthier lifestyle.

    Patient. Kind. Brave. Beautiful. Selfless.

    These five words can rightly describe every mother on this planet.
    Your mom is probably the only person on this earth who’ll pick up your dirty laundry and clean it without expecting gratitude in return. She’ll leave a few extra chapatis in the casserole because she knows you’ll feel hungry past midnight. 
    She’ll turn your negative thoughts into praises in the nick of time because she knows you so well. But most importantly, she’ll never stop loving you.  
    And even though she deserves to be celebrated infinitely, Mother’s day is one day you can dedicate to thanking her for a million times she stood by you. 
    Here are some of the priceless ways to tell her that she means the world to you. And despite all the differences, she’s your home. She’ll always be. 
    1. Yes Day For MomParantha and masala chai in bed. Finally, agreeing to talk to relatives. Picking her outfit for the day and washing it later. Watching Anupamaa with her. Playing board games with her. Anything your mom asks you to do, your answer is going to be yes for one day.  
    __ECOMPRODUCT__757__
    2. Reduce Her List Of Responsibilities...And not just for a day. Encourage your mother to take a break.
    Take up a few responsibilities from her like watering the plants, making her morning tea and breakfast, cleaning the clothes and dusting the rooms. In fact, surprise her by cleaning the entire house. Everyone appreciates a clean house, especially moms. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1478__
    3. Sit, Sip & Share Turn off your phone for a day and give her your undivided attention. 
    Teach her something new or go through your old embarrassing pictures together. Apologise for every time you’ve said something mean to her. Talk to her about her life. Gossip about your friends and relatives. 
    Make it a happy house. And do it all while sipping mocktails. All moms can use a chill day.  
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1479__
    4. Leave Surprises For HerShe would never see it coming. Hide her presents around the house and leave the discovery to her. Maybe slide a new silk saree and masks in her wardrobe, a diffuser in your living room, a watch and a grooming gift box in her dressing. 
    Share some hints to make it more fun and easier for her.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1480__
    5. Write A Letter Or Make A VideoIf you’re a writer, go for it. Fill a journal if you can. If not, just pick up your phone, switch on the recorder and start talking. From your first smile to your recent breath, thank her for everything because without her none of it would have been possible. 
    Most moms hope for emotional encounters with their children and needless to say, you pouring your heart out will make her day. 
    To take your celebration up a notch, request her to do the same!  
    __ECOMPRODUCT__625__
    6. Gift Her The Fancier Version Of A Daily Use ItemLuxury is a word most moms forget with time. Remind her that she deserves a spa, a pedicure, a bath with aromatic handmade soap every once in a while.  
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1104__
    7. Redesign Her Room Or Kitchen She would absolutely love it! Many a times she’s cleaned and designed your room. It’s your turn now. Not only will it make her happy but it will also show her how much you know her. 
    Replace the old plates in the kitchen or get a new planter for your mom’s room. There’s a lot you can do if you think about it.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1481__
    So, What Do You Want To Do?   We pick up all sorts of things from our moms—dimples, curly hair, sweet cravings, a propensity to wake up in the middle of the night and stare at the fridge for a couple of minutes, etc. Use that power to make her feel good about herself.

    It’s been 415 days, 9960 hours, 597,600 minutes and 35,856,000 seconds since we all went from complaining about travelling to work to working in our pyjamas in bed. 
    Yes, I am talking about the unfortunate descent of the pandemic in 2020 and how it led to every one of us working from home. 
    While the situation at present is worse than it was last year, there is not much most of us can do but stay home and stay safe. But, there is no rule against being comfortable while we try to stay sane through all that is happening around us.
    After searching the internet, here are our top 4 picks on the best work from home looks:
    1. Comfortable T-Shirts All The Way__ECOMPRODUCT__332__
    Finding a T-shirt that is comfortable, soft and airy is a joy that cannot be explained. When you are sitting around in the summer heat slaving away at your laptop, wearing comfortable clothes is super important which is why these Supima cotton T-shirts are ideal for all work from home activities.
    2. Boxer It UpNobody wants to wear jeans at home, most of us have already given up on the idea of ever wearing them again. While shorts are always a good idea, finding a pair of fashionable yet comfy boxers is ideal to make work from home feel like a breeze (quite literally!). 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1475__
    So, grab a pair of these awesome looking boxers that feel like air. Trust us, you will be thanking the makers once you get into them!
    3. Shirts That Amp Up The Style__ECOMPRODUCT__1476__
    Even though we are working from home, there are some events that call for something more formal or dressed up than our everyday wear T-shirts. Having a few stylish looking, cotton shirts in your wardrobe is always a plus. So, whether it is a video conference or a virtual date, you can look sharp with ease. 
    4. Sweats Are The BestDo you like to keep the AC on full blast during the summers? Does that make you feel a little chilly but not enough to use a blanket? What do you do in that case? It’s simple my friend, you trade in your comfy boxers for just as comfortable sweatpants. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1477__
    With unbeatable comfort, total versatility and an increasing acceptance as a perfect smart-casual piece, a good pair of sweatpants or joggers can easily replace your shorts at home and jeans whenever you do have to step out. 
    To Wrap It UpDuring these times we are all trying to keep our sanity and find some form of normalcy but it’s not easy to do. So, as you sit at home, finding some peace and structure in your work, also find time to lie back in your comfy boxers and T-shirt, have a chilled drink and relax your mind.
