With routines upended and people spending the majority of their time inside, it’s easy for things to feel stale, drab and a bit of a bummer. While it’s tough to control the situation outside, embracing small routines can add moments of joy and help return a sense of normalcy. Find moments to treat yourself and revitalize your #StayInSaturday or #WorkInWeekday with these easy steps.
Start the day strong. Begin with a virtual workout and a healthy breakfast. YouTube offers a number of free workout classes, and there are great subscription apps that regularly produce engaging, equipment-free classes. Reward yourself for your hard work with a delicious acai bowl or any energizing food that suits your fancy.
Organize your work space. When that afternoon slump hits, it’ll feel easier to focus when you’re greeted by a charming, well-organized station. Add some personal touches; try including a plant, some gel pens…even make space for that video game controller so it’s within arm’s reach when you’re ready to take a break.
Make lunchtime fun. The work day is also the school day for many parents balancing remote work with homeschooling. Use lunchtime as a fun, educational opportunity. Preorder different cuisines for each day of the week and discuss the varying flavors with kids at home. Check out curry, pho, or shawarma. And with Grubhub+, unlimited free delivery makes ordering from different restaurants a no-brainer. Geography meets world history meets food? We’re in!
Reward yourself after a long day. Relax with dessert and a movie. Switch from your day PJs to your night PJs, curl up under a blanket, and nosh on a sweet treat. Guess which celebrity has been known to order three to five desserts in a single evening.
Support your community. Order from local restaurants or send a Grubhub gift card to a friend in need. With Supper for Support, you can save $10 off orders of $30+ from participating restaurants 5-9pm every night including tonight!
