"My husband and I stay alone. My in-laws live in their hometown. To add to this, I am also working and pregnant! Naturally, I need to do both the office as well as household work. Though my husband does help me out, I get very tired and stressed at the end of the day. So to overcome this stress, I get up early morning and when everything is silent around, I simply meditate," says Aanchal Kamlesh, who is six months pregnant.
If you are working, take short breaks in between and move away from your workstation.
