Pushing off your breaks or relaxation time till after work or the weekend is a fast track to burnout. Research shows that taking microbreaks (10 minutes or less) throughout the work day relieves stress, improves motivation & concentration, and helps you sustain your energy throughout the day.
Set a reminder or try a break at the top of each hour. Then take a few minutes to give yourself whatever feels best at that moment. Maybe you can:
🔹 Stretch your body (try the Daily Move!)
🔹 Make a coffee or tea
🔹 Send a check-in text to a friend
🔹 Try a short meditation (check out the Quick & Easy section in app)
🔹 Walk around the block
