WORKING UNDER BEDCOVER(S)

 
After your 8-5 job in the office, you come home and what do you do! You start blogging in the night. Hmmm, I'm I guilty of this?, well em sometimes sha. Are you guilty of this? May be you should just ask your colleague in bed right there lol. If you are a mom that works in bed? - now its time to do it right! Surprise! lots of working moms work whenever and from wherever they can, including their beds. Personally I do it a lot and in the last few weeks I have been having stiff neck. A visit to my doctor revealed that my bed posture is the major cause of my neck pain. If you haven't reached a painful stage like me, I beg you to read this and learn from my experience. If you must burn the midnight oil among your blankets and bolsters, the following tips I will share with you are how to do it without hurting your health—or your relationship.

SET BOUNDERIES
The truth is that Late-night convos with close colleagues from bed shouldn’t replace pillow talk with your domestic partner. You must set boundaries.  I will urge you to limit working from your love nest to a few times a week, or only when under a tight deadline. Oga will understand deadlines. Save the other nights for, ahem, other things so that God will bless your homely ministry.

SIT UP WOMAN.
Replacing your desk for a fluffy pillow sounds comfortable right, but working from bed can actually lead to bad posture and a stiff neck and back. Prevent slouching with posture-friendly props like your headboard and firm pillows to keep your laptop at desk height and your wrists at a good angle.
Set a reminder to get up and move around or do a light stretch, like a yoga pose or any exercise you are comfortable doing. It can be erotic ones, mbok your ministry will not only be blessed but you will receive serious anointing from man of the house.

SHUT IT DOWN BEFORE A SHUT-EYE. Finish night work at least 30 minutes before snooze time so your mind can de-stress. And pack up your laptop and move all devices to where you can’t see or hear them, since the distracting pings, dings and lights from computers and smartphones can decrease levels of sleep-inducing melatonin. I will suggest you turn them off completely. Hint: Let a real alarm clock wake you, and say goodnight to your phone until morning hahaha. Do you want the real alarm clock? It is right there in your home if you have a new born baby otherwise right me for suggestions on real alarm clocks options lol.
These are a few I could think up, if you have more tips, kindly add to the list. Enjoy your weekend mamas.
