Encourage Brain Breaks

Infographic explaining brain break benefits, the 5x5 method, and science behind mental rest, with blue brain illustrations. Prints into a 9x12 poster.

Inspire your team to leverage simple, daily opportunities to reset and recharge by designating break rooms and rest areas as brain break zones.

Incorporate brain breaks into routines by designating stations and distributing educational materials – there are so many easy-to-adopt benefits.
On a larger scale, brain breaks also shape cultures – helping to increase accountability, communication and happiness for individuals, families and organizations.

Ways to Participate:

  1. Mark prime spots for brain breaks – inspire your team to leverage simple, daily opportunities to reset and recharge by designating break rooms and rest areas as brain break zones.
  2. Prescribe brain breaks – give your team explicit permission to recharge with brain breaks
  3. Share the science behind the benefits – distribute "7 Science-Backed, Guilt-Free Reasons to Take a Brain Break” with everything your team needs to know about brain breaks.
  4. Take a deeper dive – enhance your "Brain Break Spaces" using the HKS Architects & Designers Guide.
