Those who are forced to constantly work with maximum concentration often face such a phenomenon as overstrain. It is expressed in complete moral exhaustion and unwillingness to start a new business. In order not to get into such a situation, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the following points.
Meditate
Just sit down and close your eyes for 20 minutes. Don't try to solve problems, just sit and watch the thoughts that come into your head.
Take a walk
It is best, of course, on the street, but if there is no possibility, then you can also go to the office. Look out the window, watch the landscape opening from it.
Listen to classical music
The works of Mozart or Bach will help you relax, if you don't want your colleagues to relax with you, then just use headphones.
Read something abstract
There is no better way to disconnect from work, forcing the brain to work.
Have a cup of coffee and take a nap for a quarter of an hour
We talked about this in more detail in the article Recommendations for healthy sleep.
Go to the cinema
Another great opportunity to give your brain a break.
Go in for sports
People who do sports are much happier. You get tired physically, but you feel great psychologically.
Divide your project into smaller parts
Take a 30-minute break and try to look at your project from the other side. Maybe you're trying to write a book in one day? Rome, too, was not built in one day or even in a month. Set yourself intermediate and, most importantly, achievable goals in the project.
Play
It can be anything from crosswords to video games.
All the tips are aimed only at one thing – to give a discharge to your brain in order to then take up the work with renewed vigor and successfully complete it. Good luck!
