Elevate your mood and mental performance

Written By Christine Hockman

If your job and life demand focus, energy and resilience from stress, you need to take breaks.

Your brain and body weren't made to Zoom and work nonstop.

"But Christine, I'm too BUSY to take breaks."

Actually, you're too busy to NOT take breaks. Seriously.

If you want to perform at the top of your game and feel great each day, investing in recharge time will yield a massive return.

Struggling to start a break habit? Here are some easy tips to start:

  • Look at your schedule and add padding / transition time between meetings and project block time. (You just created opportunities for breaks!)

  • Add "5-minute break" on your schedule every few hours.

  • Set the timer on your watch or Fitbit for break reminders.

  • Teach your team, kids or dogs to do a fresh air or breathwork break with you.

Try it out for a week and feel the difference!
