While wearing pajamas all day is tempting, it "blurs the lines between working and relaxing," said Blankenheim. She advised that you maintain a routine of waking up at the same time each day, and getting ready just as you would if you were going into the office. Sure, you can dress more casually, but make sure you don't wear what you slept in. "Wearing clothing that is associated with relaxation can make it difficult to achieve a healthy balance between being at work and living at home," she explained.
According to the Colorado Department of Labour, getting dressed for work can help you transition to a work mindset by creating a "mental boundary between relaxation and work time." The bottom line? Work in appropriate work attire — your pajamas will be waiting for you afterwards.
