Comment on Remote workers, how do you stop thinking about work?

I’ve found that doing a “commute” works really well.

When I used to be office based I would have a 45 min bike ride to get home, and after a stressful day I would find myself therapeutically going over the happenings of the day, cataloguing my thoughts, and generally allowing my mind to churn through it all.

The intensity of this would gradually decrease throughout the ride until the final 15-20 mins where I would have a clear mind and just be focused on riding.

I recreate this now that I’m remote by jumping on my bike as soon as I’m done for the day. Clears the mind and gets in my daily exercise all in one!
