The importance of Brain Breaks
Jumping focus...all the time.
We all know multi-tasking is a myth - don't we?
It's a way where our attention jumps from one thing - to another - and back again, etc. Like clicking back & forth on tabs on your laptop.
How many tabs are open on your screen?
And this mental jumping around all the time, is a drain on your precious energy, and puts your brain into overload.
The importance of 'brain breaks'
The brain is such a precious and important resource. It is responsible for your thoughts, feelings, happiness levels and of course, your work performance.
Yet, most people, spend more time looking after their appearance, their cars and curating their Insta reels ;) than they do their minds.
But you're different.
You receive this email...ha!
It reminds you about the merits of taking 'quiet' or 'me' time for overall functioning, performance and health.
Whether it helps to get your bum on the seat...well that's another thing.
An important one.
If it doesn't, consider this email (regardless of its content) another piece of stimulation.
And there's too much of that already.
Spacious. Balanced. Relaxed.
Drop in at lunchtime for a group 'brain break.
Having others there, keeps you accountable...to keep practicing.
It's not always easy. Take any encouragement you can get.
