Are you stressed about work even when you’re trying to enjoy leisure-time pursuits? You may be headed for burnout — a state in which you find it difficult to cope with work and routine daily activities alike. Burnout can affect your mental and physical health. #WorkLifeBalance

National Get Organized Day is tomorrow! Use the day to #spring-clean and cut the #clutter. Pick a closet or drawer and purge anything you don't use, setting aside useful items to #donate to ClothingDonations.org. Then, #reorganize the stuff you need. #NationalGetOrganizedDay

Think like a chef to get #organized on National Get Organized Day, April 26. Professional chefs arrange their tools and ingredients to cook efficiently in a hectic environment, giving the essentials a "home" and centering themselves on the tasks at hand. #NationalGetOrganizedDay

April 26 is National Get Organized Day! #Cleaning and #decluttering can streamline your life, saving time while enhancing physical and mental health. A #decluttered home is 40% easier to keep clean — and you'll spend less time searching it for your keys. #NationalGetOrganizedDay

To protect the planet, EarthDay.org is targeting a 60% reduction in plastic production by 2040 on the way to a plastic-free future. Help reduce reliance on single-use plastics by keeping a reusable shopping bag in your car, purse or backpack at all times. #EarthDay2024

Fast fashion is a big source of pollution. Instead of wearing disposable garments whose petroleum microfibers contaminate waterways, buy long-lasting, quality garments or shop for good used #clothing at the thrifts supplied by #donations to ClothingDonations.org. #EarthDay2024

Want to cut your carbon footprint for #Earth Day? Try eating lower on the food chain. Livestock farming is responsible for almost 15% of manmade global greenhouse gas emissions, so each day with a vegetarian diet can reduce one's carbon footprint by 8 pounds. #EarthDay

Want to #declutter but don’t know here to begin? Target the most troublesome areas — the kitchen, which gets used often; the bedroom closet, which attracts lots of clothes and other #stuff that has no regular home; or the bathroom, where half-used cosmetics tend to pile up.

You may have done a thorough #spring #cleaning, but have you looked inside your cupboards, coffee tables and sideboards? Your desk and bedside tables are also places that attract paperwork, jewelry and other random #stuff you wanted to get out of sight quickly. #Decluttering

Ancient civilizations saw total eclipses as portents of doom. Today, we know that eclipses are rare but predictable and harmless phenomena — as long as you don't attempt to look at the sun without wearing solar-protective eyewear or a pinhole camera device. #Eclipse2024

Homes often have spaces you forget to #declutter because they hold the #stuff you rarely miss — like things you use only for holidays and special occasions. Forgotten places may include the pantry, attic, garage and the space under the sink. Take a few hours to edit that junk.

If you aren't among the up to 4 million people who will travel to view this year's eclipse, you can live-stream totality as it occurs with NASA and other websites with no need for protective glasses. Either way, it promises to be a rare and awe-inspiring event. #Eclipse2024

A rare celestial event is coming April 8. The moon will pass between the earth and the sun, blocking light from reaching earth and producing a solar eclipse that will be visible from Arizona to Maine. As many as 4 million Americans plan to travel to see totality. #Eclipse2024

You can honor #Vietnam #veterans any day of the year by donating to programs that support them and cut #clutter. Simply gather your lightly used, unwanted clothing and household goods and schedule a #free #donation #pickup at ClothingDonations.org. #NationalVietnamVeteransDay

If you can’t find a National Vietnam War Veterans Day or Welcome Home event to attend in your area, you can honor #veterans in a more personal way by visiting a local veterans home or VA hospital, sending a card, or shopping a veteran-owned business. #NationalVietnamVeteransDay

A good way to celebrate National Vietnam War Veterans Day is to find a local observance led by #veterans in your area. #Vietnam Veterans of America and other groups will host solemn events at memorials nationwide to recognize #service and #sacrifice. #NationalVietnamVeteransDay

#Spring invites people to reevaluate their priorities. Streamline your life by focusing on what you value the most and structuring your time around it. Take a hint from nature: Renew your surroundings and your outlook. You’ll feel better and more refreshed. #SpringRenewal

With the new season, you may feel the need to #declutter your space. Sort out any clothing you haven’t worn in more than two years and #donate it. Follow up by clearing mental clutter, shedding old habits that sap your energy. Progress is the goal, not perfection. #SpringRenewal

#Vietnam #veterans Day is March 29, commemorating the date in 1973 when the last combat troops were withdrawn from Vietnam and the last prisoners of war held in North Vietnam arrived back on American soil. Plan to #thank a #veteran for their service! #VietnamVeteransDay

Many plants need about six weeks to grow from seed to transplantable starter, so the time to sow seeds is now in many areas of the U.S. Simply sow your seeds in soil or seed starter in a tray or small container, planting them only as deep as the seed is large. #StartingSeeds
