Set Healthy Limits
Without the normal workplace activity around you, it’s very easy to sit at your desk for many hours continuously and not move around. Set healthy limits on your work hours and plan reasonable breaks for yourself.
A "mindful-moment" is a great way to take a break:
Integrate movement with simple stretching or—if conditions permit—a brisk walk outdoors.
Get Help When You Need It
Remote and hybrid employees can access UI services like liveWELL, Family Services, and the Employee Assistance Program. All offer personalized support and online resources for physical and emotional health, financial well-being, and more.
The Mental Health at Iowa website is another great resource for general advice, 24-hour support, and referrals.
