At the TBA Convention in June, YLD Board members were asked to submit tips on incorporating wellness into their lives as attorneys. We will be sharing these tips and other wellness ideas over the next year. Starting off, here are two tips that can help navigate the stresses of being an attorney.

  • Exercise daily. Find what you love — yoga, swimming, hiking, gardening, weight lifting. Aim for 30 minutes a day.
  • Several young attorneys noted that they try to take a 15-minute break each morning and afternoon to step away from their desks. This not only helps to get the body moving but provides a break from the computer. Do a lap around the office or if the weather is nice, take your break outside and take a walk around the block. Fresh air and sunshine can help mitigate and manage stress.
