“Everybody’s longing for community. We long to be part of a village. We long to have
people come over and help us. But when’s the last time you’ve hosted something? When’s the last time you helped somebody move? When’s the last time you picked somebody up at the airport?” – Priya Parker

decide in advance when you will rest, move your body, eat, or step away from work so those needs do not become an afterthought. and if you’re working from home, bonus points for designating areas in the home where you work and areas in the home that are “off limits” for working and dedicated to your rest.

choose one consistent time each day to check in with yourself and notice what you need before moving into the rest of your responsibilities and before assisting others.

This is in reference to the letter about giving gifts to adults from “Feeling Bah-humbug” who wrote: “My significant other and I are at the stage in life where we really do not need more ‘stuff’ and would rather not deal with gifts that are generic at best and usually are re-gifted promptly via donation or gift-economy communities.”
We had the same problem. Solved it! Instead of buying gifts, we determined a monetary amount we probably would spend on a gift. We picked $50. Could be any amount.
Every year one person was in charge of collecting the money from everyone. That person donated that amount to their favorite charity. Next year, the next person collected the money and donated it to their favorite charity. Worked great! – Regifting
Dear Regifting: What I love most about this solution, in addition to giving a meaningful pot of money to a charity, is that it gives your family the chance to learn about each other through what causes you care about.
