Taking mini breaks

Ergonomics recommend switching between sitting, standing and moving every hour, and about converting video calls to audio calls to have some variation. I’m told of the benefit of mini-breaks throughout the day (like a 3 minute meditation break) both for mental health and eye health.

I’ve learned to pay attention to when I tend to be more irritable or angry in meetings (and I’ve started to learn which meetings I’m most likely to manifest these reactions to). It’s an indicator I need time off, or at minimum, need a break from meetings to use my time however I need to, which is usually a blend of cleaning/organizing the house and catching up on some of my writing or thinking.
