A lunch break at work makes it possible not only to satisfy hunger, but also to recuperate, deal with personal affairs, and pay attention to your own health. Make the most of this time.
Warm up
Don't dine at your desk. Firstly, it is simply necessary to be distracted from work, otherwise the concentration of attention is sharply reduced. Secondly, your body needs to stretch. Walk around, take a walk down the street or a nearby park.
If the length of your lunch break allows, you can use the fitness center during it. This is a great idea as the daytime is perfect for training. In addition, after class, you will feel more energized and have time to do much more at work.
When you don't have time for the gym, do a little workout at work. Raise your pelvis from a seated position by placing your hands on the seating surface behind the body. Rock slightly, rolling from toe to heel. Perform circular movements with your shoulders and several head turns.
If you are working with stress on your eyes, your optic muscles will benefit from charging. Look in the distance, then at the nearby object. Draw circles, triangles and squares with your eyes. Blink a few times, then close your eyes tightly five or six times.
An excellent rest can be a half-hour nap in the afternoon. If you have your own office to lock in or have a car parked near work, you can take a nap.
Get distracted
Rest is needed not only for your body, but also for your mind. Working during a break or discussing work issues is undesirable. It is better to talk with colleagues on abstract topics, discuss the latest news. Call your friends or spend some time on the social network. If people you know work nearby, you can meet them at lunchtime. So you will be distracted from work and get positive emotions.
During your lunch break, you can read a book or magazine, or search for some useful information on the Internet. If you are studying a foreign language or mastering a new profession, you can take the time to review and review the training materials. Various audio files and videos of an entertaining or educational nature can also help you distract yourself. Listen to your favorite music and your mood will rise.
If there are several shops or an entire mall near your place of work, you can shop during your lunch break. So you will save personal time outside of work by buying everything you need at lunchtime, and have a good time looking around the windows and counters.
Of course, for all these entertainments, one must not forget about food. Let your lunch menu be high quality, healthy and varied. Then food will bring real benefits to your body.
