I wonder what are the best ways to take breaks when you're on the computer for 7 hours or more a day without losing your concentration when you have to go back to the screen (NB: I often have several client projects to manage in the same day, my brain goes crazy)

discuss

order

The Pomodoro method jumps to mind.

But I’m with you - if the work at hand isn’t stimulating, any break will take a long while to “recover” from.

mental burnout is a thing. The best way to take breaks ... Is to take breaks! :D

Benefits of taking breaks are many. Such as getting up and moving, increasing blood circulation. Also relieving eye strain by focusing on far away things, rather than your close-up monitor.

I try to practice the 90m on, 30m off regimen that Huberman advocates, and it's worked well. I can do that all day without burnout.
