Give yourself a few days to adjust before going full throttle again. Gradually reintroduce your normal tasks so you can ease into them and then get back into a good workflow.

Go outside

You probably spent a lot of time outdoors during your vacation. It'll take some getting used to spending days back inside the office. This can cause a dip in your energy levels.

Fresh air can do wonders for your energy levels, and with increased energy, it's much easier to get through the post-vacation blues.

Whether it's your office or study desk, a tidy and well-organized workspace can do wonders for your productivity and mood.
