How to break the busy cycle

Experiments

  1. Take five minutes and just breathe. Deep breathing through your abdomen eases anxiety and increases alertness.
  2. Take a nap. Keep it to 20 to 30 minutes. If a nap isn't possible, go to bed 15 to 30 minutes earlier.
  3. Take a 15-minute break to be outdoors and enjoy the beauty of nature.
