Take a power nap
For most people, taking power naps can restore their energy and clear their minds at times when they feel overworked. The ideal power nap lasts around 10 to 20 minutes. Some say that 30 minutes may be too long and can leave you feeling groggy instead of energized. Others say that an 80-minute nap is good if you’re looking for a longer option. This doesn’t mean you should be taking naps all the time, because this may hinder your productivity. Rather, take naps only when you think you need to and when you know you’ve accomplished a considerable amount of work.
Enjoy some of your favorite foods
Aside from napping, eating is also a healthy way to take a break from working. Of course, when you eat, you want to be eating something you enjoy. Having a stale cracker or a cold pizza may not be the best break time meal (unless you’re into stale crackers and cold pizza, then be my guest!). Eating a good meal can not only give you some energy, but it can also put you in a good mood for the rest of the day, and may motivate you to continue working and relieve stress.
