Disengage to Inspire Innovation

A relaxed man sits in front of computer with eyes closed. This setting is in an office.

Why not take a 5-minute brain break right now?

Make your brain's downtime a priority. Start by stepping away from whatever you are doing. Then, let your mind wander for 5 minutes – without technology or any focused stimulation.

SCIENCE SAYS:

Taking a few minutes to disengage throughout the day helps downregulate stress and recharge mental energy, allowing a boost in inspired, innovative thinking. Spending too much time focused on work induces fatigue and distraction and reduces overall productivity.

BEGIN BY:

  • Clearing your mind
  • Taking a relaxing walk
  • Turning off the radio during your commute
  • Reminding yourself to take breaks using a timer or time management app
