You're not imagining it--our brains literally get tired! ?? Researchers recently used brain imaging to "observe mental fatigue in real-time, revealing that the brain, like muscles, grows tired from sustained effort. As it tires, it becomes less efficient, which affects how well it functions."? ? Here are three tips to help you avoid mental fatigue:? ? 1?? Take breaks often-- every 20 minutes for general tasks or at least every 90 minutes for deep concentration activities. You can make your break more refreshing by trying active rest techniques like yoga or 10 minute walks. ??♀? This is also a great time to hydrate and refuel with a healthy snack!? ? 2?? Keep your intense efforts to 4 hours a day or less. Balancing heavy concentration tasks with lighter tasks can help. ?? Lighter tasks might include organizing your day or handling emails.? ? 3?? Use motivators when you need an extra boost. Some work days you may have to go all in. ?? When that happens, plan a reward for the end of your day to help you keep going. #mentalhealth #timemanagement?#worklifebalance https://lnkd.in/gKXcRPke
