Summer Remote: Ways to Keep Your Mind Healthy and Beat FOMO

Striking a balance between remote work and enjoying summer can feel like walking a tightrope. On the one hand, you can work in your pajamas on the balcony. On the other hand, while everyone else is on vacation, you're stuck juggling calls and deadlines. It's easy to daydream about sipping Aperol by the seaside, but instead, work tasks keep pulling you back with their endless demands, leaving you with a sense of FOMO.

What is FOMO?

FOMO, or the fear of missing out, is the unease and doubt that arise when you feel you're missing out on something thrilling or crucial.

How does FOMO show itself?

• You constantly scroll through social media to see what others are up to.
• You might feel envious of others' successes and achievements or miss out on significant events and experiences.
• Comparing yourself to others might make you feel unhappy and inadequate.
