Try to separated your online digital life from your work life. Some ways you might do this digitally:
Turning off notifications on work emails after a certain time.
Shutting down work-related tabs at the end of the day - remember you can bookmark useful sites instead - before using your laptop or computer for leisure activities. You could even having separate browsers for work and leisure.
Setting up a separate work area that is separate from the areas you relax in - so not just working on your bed!
Take breaks away from the screen - this sounds simple but even getting up to look out of a window to 'stretch' your eyes can help reduce eye strain. Better yet, ensure you make time for yourself to get out of the house and into fresh air, you can take a look at our 'Explore Our Outdoor City' site for recommendations on places to visit.
Be careful of what you do before bed - if you can, you might consider avoiding using a screen at all, but if not explore our 'Device Settings' page for setting you can use to minimise eye strain. Even doing something as simple as avoiding social media before bed, which is particularly stimulating in keeping your mind active when it should be winding down, and avoiding having your phone or device too close to you when you've put it down to go to sleep can help provide a more restful night.
