This point, you really got to set your boundaries and communicate that with your team (calendar, slack status message etc). This is my first time working from home for a longer duration, and it was really harder to do this the first month. I was unknowingly working longer hours and was burning or stressing myself out. Now my setup is as follows:
1. Calendar has defined work hours, lunch time break, coffee breaks, spending time with kids break.
2. Slack has the status messages for the same hours and in DND mode
3. I shutdown my work laptop by 7PM and open it only by 9AM
4. My router cuts access to all connected devices by 7PM clearly as reminder. So if I'm to extend a call or continue working I have to do it consciously.
5. I create a two users in my Android phone called "Home" and "Work" and each has apps and accounts only required for each mode, but contacts are shared. If people need me from work, they can call or text me in case of SEV1s.
6. I sent this in detailed email to my team and other people I interact with in office.
