Summer isn't just a vacation: it's also a state of mind.
We often think that to regenerate, we need to completely disconnect from work. But there's an alternative: living each day better, even while working.
In our coworking spaces, your work-life balance is easier to achieve: comfortable spaces, a slower pace, and informal relationships make July the perfect month to slow down... without stopping.

Here you are 5 practical ideas to make the most of your summer working in coworking with less stress and more well-being.

☀️ 1. Start early and finish early

With the sun rising early and setting late, you can rearrange your day to optimize your time.
Arrive at the coworking space at 8:00 It means completing most of your tasks by lunchtime, leaving you with a freer and lighter afternoon.

Bonus Tip: Morning is the time of greatest mental clarity. Ideal for writing, planning, or making important decisions.

🌳 2. Plan your outdoor breaks

A break is not just “wasted time”: it is energy that returns.
Around Changes Coworking you'll find green spaces, shaded outdoor seating, and quiet coffee break areas where you can recharge.

Create a little ritual: a post-call walk, a freshly squeezed juice mid-morning, lunch in the park with a colleague.

Stay outdoors for 10 minutes every two hours improves focus, creativity and mood.

🤝 3. Network informally

Forget forced networking. In July, the more relaxed atmosphere fosters authentic connections.
A shared lunch in the coworking kitchen, a coffee on the patio, or a spontaneous chat between tasks can spark new collaborations or simple everyday alliances.

Bonus type: propose a "weekly shared lunch" with other coworkers. Bring something to offer, and the rest will follow.

📅 4. Reorganize your day into light blocks

When it's hot, working non-stop can become tiring and counterproductive.
Try to divide your tasks into 90-minute blocks, interspersed with regenerative breaks: a fresh snack, 10 minutes of silence, a change of station.
This technique, called “summer time boxing”, helps you maintain concentration and well-being without arriving at the end of the day exhausted.

Changing pace doesn't mean slowing down, but working better and with more energy.

🚗 5. Take micro vacations (and don't feel guilty about it))

Who said you need a whole week to unplug?
Just work in a focused way for a few days and then enjoy long, regenerating weekends out of town.
Thanks to the flexibility of Changes solutions, you can also organize your month with balance, choosing only the days when you really need the space.

🎯 In short

Working in the summer doesn't necessarily mean stress. With a few small changes and the right environment, you can transform it into an opportunity for growth, well-being, and relationships.

Changes Coworking offers you all this, with flexibility, fresh air, community, and a new routine that will make you love even the heat.
