Welcome to the 360 Health Biz podcast's Biz Bomb where we give you a super quick actionable tip for your business.
Today's tip is all about taking a break. It's very important to take regular breaks because research shows that you really shouldn't be sitting or not moving your body for longer than about 60 minutes. So, moving your body at least every hour is way more important than sitting all day and then going and crushing it at the gym or CrossFit at the end of the day. Even when you have deadlines or you're really into a project, taking breaks is crucial to your physical and mental health.
That's where the Timeout app comes in! You can adjust the settings where it notifies you to take a break (Kendra has her set up to notify her ever hour for a two minute break). And it's not just a quick little notification that comes to the right side of your screen, it actually comes up and blocks your screen. You can always X out of it, but basically it prevents you from clicking or doing anything for about five seconds.
You could set it up to be every couple of hours for 15 minutes where you could have a quick walk, get a snack, take a bathroom break...however you want to utilize that time. The important thing is that you actually take the break(s)!
Even though you may be deep into a project and you just want to finish it, we guarantee you are going to be way more productive if you do this. If you take regular breaks it helps clear your head and detoxes some of that radiation or whatever it is that we are getting from the computer screen and it just makes you more effective.
So give Timeout a try!
