If you’ve been working from home over the past few months, your morning routine has probably changed. Your work environment likely comes with a new set of distractions. Your home is also your office, as well as your gym, and you rarely leave it--which uncomfortably blurs the lines between work hours and non-work hours.

All of those factors can dramatically affect your mental health--even if, after three or four months, you think you’ve gotten the hang of working from home. Heidi Zak, co-founder and co-CEO of undergarment company ThirdLove, has been thinking a lot about that recently, both for herself and her 150 employees. In her latest Inc.com column, Zak describes the solution she and the team came up with: a company-wide “wellness week.”

The week started with a guest speaker’s virtual presentation on mental health in the workplace. There was also a session on handling stress, a virtual yoga class, a midweek day off, and more. “By taking it upon yourself as the leader to create the space for people to take care of themselves, connect with one another, and be more mindful about their own unique experiences, you are doing a lot more than just facilitating a week-long team-building event,” Zak writes.
