Why Take Breaks

Here is a summary of recent research and thinking on the value of taking breaks:

1. “Movement breaks” are essential for your physical and emotional health.
2. Breaks can prevent “decision fatigue”
3. Breaks restore motivation, especially for long-term goals.
4. Breaks increase productivity and creativity.
5. “Waking rest” helps consolidate memories and improve learning.

Good Breaks:

1. Walk or exercise.
2. Connect with nature…or a streetscape.
3. Change your environment.
4. Have lunch or a healthy snack.
5. Take a “power nap”-if it won’t get you fired.
6. Take a few deep breaths.
7. Meditate.
8. Day Dream
9. Get creative!
