Board games, video games, mobile games, have all seen a rise in adoption in recent years and the trend isn’t going away anywhere. As many of us spend time indoors, it’s a great idea to turn off the television and indulge in some games. Not only is this a great way to unwind, but it also serves an intellectual function. Games help your mind develop agility, improve your reflexes, strengthen decision-making abilities, and more. So, without further ado, here is a list of different kinds of games we hope you will enjoy Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp – A rage in mobile gaming, this is a free-to-start game, with in-app purchases available.

This is no easy task and requires energy and mental resilience. The beautiful thing about human beings is that the more positivity we sow within ourselves, the more strength we can share with those around us. Here are some tips and tools that can help you reflect and reenergize. Take time for yourself – In the need to take care of other people, it’s easy to forget the most important person you should take care of – yourself. The first step in the cycle of caring requires that you set some time, as little as 15 minutes a day, to connect with yourself.

Some of the challenges that people face include tech troubles, dealing with virtual meetings, and feeling isolated. We have some tips on how to not only manage but have fun with each of these challenges. Jazz up meetings with virtual backgrounds – If Zoom is your preferred virtual meeting platform, you have plenty of free backgrounds to choose from. You can either choose from options there or add more personality by using other tools. Canva, a design resource website offers free templates that range from animated backgrounds to static images like your astrological sign. Jazz up your screen and use the background as a virtual ice breaker before the meeting officially begins.

Today, we share some tips on designing your workspace effectively so you can truly focus on the tasks at hand. Set up a separate space: Some apartments and homes come with a study room or an alcove, but if yours doesn’t you can create it by dividing the room using movable items . Place a plant or bookshelf in between your living room furniture and your work desk and chair. This way you will have a work zone that is separate from the rest of the room.
