1 Assess your needs

Before you take a break, ask yourself what you need the most. Are you feeling tired, bored, stressed, or overwhelmed? Do you need to relax, stimulate, or balance your brain? Depending on your answer, you might want to choose a different type of break. For example, if you’re feeling tired, you might want to take a nap, meditate, or listen to soothing music. If you’re feeling bored, you might want to play a game, watch a funny video, or learn something new. If you’re feeling stressed or overwhelmed, you might want to breathe deeply, talk to a friend, or write down your thoughts.

2 Set a timer

Once you’ve decided what kind of break you want to take, set a timer for how long you want to spend on it. This will help you avoid getting distracted or losing track of time. A good rule of thumb is to take a break every 90 minutes for about 15 to 20 minutes. This is based on the idea that our brains work best in cycles of focused work and rest. However, you can adjust this according to your own preferences and schedule. The important thing is to stick to your timer and return to your work when it goes off.

Productivity Apps: Utilize apps like "Forest" for a focused work session or "Be Focused" for a Pomodoro technique application, helping you manage work and break intervals effectively. Visual Timers: For those who respond well to visual cues, a visual timer can serve as a gentle reminder that it’s almost time to get back to work, making the transition smoother.

3 Change your environment

Another way to make your break more effective is to change your environment. This can help you break away from the monotony and stress of your work space and give you a fresh perspective. You can do this by going outside, moving to a different room, or even just rearranging your desk. Changing your environment can also help you stimulate your senses and expose yourself to different stimuli. For example, you can smell some flowers, touch some textures, taste some flavors, hear some sounds, or see some colors.

Never underestimate the power of a short walk outside without headphones. Whether you work from home or in an office, you are probably sitting far too long too often.

Man k?nnte nach getaner Arbeit zu einem Schwimmbad oder an einen See fahren und dort ein paar Bahnen oder Runden schwimmen, sich danach, bei gutem Wetter, auf eine Decke legen und ein Nickerchen machen. Danach vielleicht noch eine zweite Runde Bahnen oder Runden schwimmen. Wenn man dann nach Hause kommt, ist vielleicht ein leckeres Abendessen angesagt und dann Schlaf oder ein tolles Gespr?ch oder ein Film...

4 Do something fun

Of course, the best way to enjoy your break is to do something fun. This can help you release some endorphins, the hormones that make you feel happy and relaxed. Doing something fun can also help you tap into your creativity and curiosity, which can improve your problem-solving and critical thinking skills. You can do anything that makes you smile, laugh, or feel good. For example, you can read a book, draw a picture, play with your pet, or dance to your favorite song.

5 Be mindful

Finally, be mindful of how you spend your break. This means paying attention to what you’re doing, how you’re feeling, and what you’re thinking. Being mindful can help you avoid negative thoughts, emotions, or behaviors that might ruin your break or affect your work. It can also help you appreciate the moment and the benefits of taking a break. You can practice mindfulness by being aware of your senses, your breath, your body, and your surroundings. You can also use some apps, podcasts, or videos that guide you through mindfulness exercises.

Taking a break is not a waste of time. It’s a smart and healthy way to recharge your batteries and improve your performance. By following these tips, you can choose and enjoy a break that will help you feel refreshed, energized, and ready to tackle your next task.
