Give Yourself a Break!

Trying times call for some modifications at work and at home – and right now those might be one in the same! In this uncertain climate, many of us are finding ourselves working from home full time, and experiencing new challenges like managing our jobs while children clamor for our attention, reduced interaction with our co-workers or family members, and feelings of loneliness or isolation. These are new dynamics that we are navigating daily while adjusting to what has become our “new normal” for the time being. And when our emotions are in flux, we experience new highs and lows throughout the day, making it more challenging to be productive.

The typical afternoon slump occurs for most of us between 2:00-3:00 PM, making it the ideal time of day to take a break. During stressful times when life is anything but typical, we may notice even more frequent and dramatic slumps, giving us reason to step back and “reset” our thoughts and attention to what matters most. So give yourself a break! Get some fresh air, eat nutritious foods, and recharge your body and mind throughout the day. The BioCharger can offer a pick-me-up when you need it most.

Sleep, exercise, and good nutrition are natural stress reducers and productivity boosters, and if you have a project that you need to tackle, research shows that the best time for most people to undertake tough tasks is between the hours of 11 AM and 2 PM. Reaction time and mental quickness are at their peak during these hours, deeming it the most effective time of the day to take action and pound through your to-do list.
