Step away from the email<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this year, a report circulated that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.economist.com\/blogs\/charlemagne\/2014\/04\/frances-6pm-e-mail-ban\">a French law banned employees from checking work emails after 6pm<\/a>. It wasn\u2019t true but fitted with our notion of the French as a nation of slackers favouring long lunches, five-day weekends and plenty of slap and tickle while <em>les rosbifs<\/em> carried on working through the night. But maybe there <em>should<\/em> be a law against after-hours fielding of bosses\u2019 emails? \u201cIt would be impossible to enforce,\u201d says Leeds-based <a href=\"http:\/\/www.melanieallen.co.uk\/articles\/work-life-balance-top-10-tips\/\">life coach Melanie Allen<\/a>. \u201cBut companies should think about productivity. Is this incessant checking of emails and social media by their employees adding to productivity or just pointless stress?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/3-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3725\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/3-4.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/3-4-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/3-4-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/3-4-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>2. Just say no<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re constantly available for your boss\u2019s nonstop demands and feeling overwhelmed, it might be time to harness the power of <em>no<\/em>. Allen advises: \u201cIf you tend to say yes automatically, pause. Say you\u2019ll get back to them, then decide if it\u2019s a real yes\u2014or a no.\u201d If it\u2019s no, say it firmly and clearly. No need to justify or make excuses\u2014just be respectful and direct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mental Health Foundation also stresses the importance of speaking up when work demands become too much. Take inspiration from footballer Eric Cantona, who in <em>Looking for Eric<\/em>, teaches the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DvVZEKCcWlQ\">power of a firm \u201cnon.<\/a>\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/4-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3726\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/4-3.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/4-3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/4-3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/4-3-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>3. Work smarter, not harder<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some advocate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bulletproofexec.com\/how-to-hack-your-sleep-the-art-and-science-of-sleeping\/\">working more and sleeping less<\/a>\u2014citing examples like Margaret Thatcher, who reportedly thrived on four hours of sleep. Today, it\u2019s called <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-2632090\/Its-called-sleep-hacking-new-trend-fro-training-mind-body-cope-far-sleep-So-doctors-worried-woman-busy-sleep-FOUR-hours-night.html\">sleep hacking<\/a><\/em>, but US academic Matt Might argues that this mindset is flawed. Productivity isn\u2019t just about hours worked, but how much you achieve per hour. The Mental Health Foundation advises: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mentalhealth.org.uk\/help-information\/mental-health-a-z\/W\/work-life-balance\/\">Work smart, not long<\/a>,\u201d which means prioritizing tasks, setting time limits, and avoiding unproductive activities like endless meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet many of us still confuse busyness with effectiveness. UK productivity remains low despite long working hours. The Mental Health Foundation reports that prolonged overwork impacts mental health: 27% of employees feel depressed, 34% anxious, and 58% irritable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/5-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3727\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/5-2.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/5-2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/5-2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/5-2-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>4. Leave work at work<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine you\u2019re just about to leave your workplace, possibly for cocktails at TGI Fridays, even though it\u2019s actually Tuesday. Before you do, write a note to yourself listing outstanding tasks or any work things that are on your mind. \u201cThen shut the diary, turn off your PC, store your message and <em>leave it.<\/em>\u201d counsels Allen. \u201cFocus on the image of shutting the diary, saving the message or turning off your PC.\u201d If this is not possible, she recommends what she calls a stop-breathe technique. What does that mean? \u201cTake a slow breath and acknowledge that you\u2019ve left. If you can\u2019t do that at the office door, when you\u2019re getting a train or bus and the door closes, imagine that\u2019s the end of your working day. Or if you\u2019re in your car, sit at the wheel for a short while before you start the engine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Closure is a big theme among those offering tips to a healthy work-life balance: the Mental Health Foundation says that if you do happen to take work home with you, you should try to confine it to a certain area of your home \u2013 and be able to close the door on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3728\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6-2.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6-2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6-2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6-2-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>5. Forget about perfection<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea of leaving work behind sounds great\u2014until you remember a task you could\u2019ve done better and head back to fix it. Is that really wrong? \u201cSome people struggle to let things go,\u201d says Allen. \u201cI call it \u2018good enough versus fabulous.\u2019 Sometimes, especially when overworked, you need to remind yourself that good enough really is enough.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She shares the story of a woman returning to full-time work, frustrated that her partner doesn\u2019t do laundry her way. But redoing it only adds more stress. \u201cDon\u2019t put extra pressure on yourself\u2014at work or at home,\u201d Allen advises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Netmums reminds working mothers: \u201cGive yourself a break. It doesn\u2019t matter if your home isn\u2019t immaculate or your kids don\u2019t eat perfectly cooked meals every day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/7-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3729\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/7-3.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/7-3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/7-3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/7-3-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>6. Don\u2019t be a martyr<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is also the tendency I come across where somebody will say, \u2018I have to do everything round here,\u2019\u201d says Allen. \u201cTo feel like a martyr gives some people a great deal of pleasure \u2013 they feel they\u2019re powerful and busy.\u201d And what\u2019s wrong with that? \u201cIt\u2019s worth thinking about how infuriating that is for other people. The reason most people are martyrs is that they want the approval of others; if they realise martyrdom \u2013 just doing all the work \u2013 is exasperating to be around, they might stop behaving that way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3735\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-2.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/8-2-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>7. Ease off the adrenaline<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you need the rush of adrenaline all the time, whether it\u2019s at the gym, in the sack or at the coalface of paid employment? \u201cYou really ought to monitor that,\u201d says Allen. \u201cYou need to ask yourself how well your life is really going. What happens often is that those hooked on adrenaline hop from one rush to another \u2013 from one task to another, from work to gym. What\u2019s that like for your family and friends to be around? Not much fun, especially when you crash \u2013 which inevitably you will.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/9-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/9-3.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/9-3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/9-3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/9-3-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>8. Think about retirement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSome people are wedded to work, especially the self-employed,\u201d says Allen. \u201cBut what happens if you lose your job or retire? You need something else to fall back on.\u201d While gaps in employment or retirement are inevitable, many struggle to shift focus away from work. Allen encourages finding interests beyond your job\u2014not just old-school hobbies like stamp collecting, but anything meaningful that helps you recharge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mental Health Foundation suggests reducing stress through exercise, relaxation, or hobbies. And if all else fails, throwing darts at a photo of your boss might just combine all three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/10-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/10-4.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/10-4-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/10-4-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/10-4-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>9. Make \u2019em wait<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One way to avoid being incessantly available is to make it clear to your colleagues that you will reply to emails within 24 or 48 hours. \u201cAs long as you\u2019re reliable about replying in the end, it\u2019s surprising how little this bothers people,\u201d argues Oliver Burkeman, author of <a href=\"http:\/\/bookshop.theguardian.com\/help-6.html\">Help! How to Become Slightly Happier and Get a Bit More Done<\/a>. Quite so, but texting is based on different parameters \u2013 to send a text is to expect a quick, even immediate reply. But fear not, remember point two &#8211; just say no. You need to make it clear that you\u2019re not endlessly available for work queries outside working hours. Admittedly, that\u2019s easier said than done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1-3.png 800w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1-3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1-3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/training.thevirtualhub.ph\/sandbox\/t9\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1-3-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-x-large-font-size\"><strong>10. Set your own rules<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou need to find your own work-life balance\u2014with support, but guided by your own intuition,\u201d says Allen. \u201cIgnore the \u2018shoulds\u2019 imposed by others or absorbed over time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Work attitudes are shifting. Millennials, in particular, tend to blur the boundaries between work and home, with 81% believing they should set their own schedules. For some, that means flexible hours, remote work, and fewer traditional meetings\u2014ideally with no backlash if they say no to weekend requests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the dream of total flexibility doesn\u2019t always match reality\u2014but a more balanced, personal approach is becoming the goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><em>By applying these tips for better work-life balance in a virtual team, you can boost well-being and performance<\/em><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>10 Tips for Better Work-Life Balance in a Virtual Team In this post, we\u2019ll share practical tips for better work-life balance in a virtual team to help you stay productive without burning out. 1.
