Coping strategies that may help

Mindful Breathing

Take a few moments to focus on your breath. Inhale deeply for a count of four, hold for four, and exhale for four. This can help ground you in the present.

Set Boundaries

Establish clear work-life boundaries. Designate specific times for work and personal activities to help reduce stress.

Take Breaks

Incorporate short breaks throughout your workday. A brief walk or a few minutes of stretching can rejuvenate your mind.

Connect with Others

Reach out to colleagues or friends for support. Sharing your feelings can help lighten the emotional load.
