So go to the park, walk around or sit in the sunshine and enjoy the green space and fresh air.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong><em>Strech out<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Stress tenses up the shoulder, neck and back muscles. Find a 15-minute exercise program to stretch your neck and back and relieve tension. Yoga videos are great for stretching and destressing. And exercise increases endorphins, making it a natural mood-booster.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong><em>Find a break buddy<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Meet with a colleague or friend for a 15-minute chat. Because connecting with other people is hugely important for our wellbeing. If you get together to chat, smile and laugh, you\u2019ll all return to work with more motivation and in a better mood.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong><em>Get creative<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Crafting, coloring or making music enables us to relax, focus and get in the zone. If you prefer to enjoy the creative works of others, just listen to your favorite music or quietly contemplate beautiful artwork.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong><em>Laugh out loud<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Laughter is the best medicine. Laughter increases feel-good endorphins and melts stress away. And if you don\u2019t feel like laughing? A funny book, podcast or pet video will surely help get you started.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><strong><em>Enjoy every bite<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5854\" src=\"https:\/\/aramark-foodboost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/genuss-pause-bewusst-essen.jpg\" alt=\"Genuss-Pause mit bewusstem Essen\" width=\"400\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aramark-foodboost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/genuss-pause-bewusst-essen.jpg 400w, https:\/\/aramark-foodboost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/genuss-pause-bewusst-essen-150x115.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>When you\u2019re hungry, don\u2019t snack as you work but take a break and eat mindfully, enjoying your food with all of your senses. Enjoy the look, taste and smell. This way, even a tea, coffee or snack break can be a relaxing, enjoyable time-out.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li><strong><em>Refresh your space<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Admittedly, tidying up doesn\u2019t sound like the most exciting way to spend your break. But tidy surroundings often bring clarity to our thoughts and feelings. Tidying can thus help us destress and give us a great feeling of having achieved something. Washing up, making the bed or vacuuming can distract you and be done in just 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li><strong><em>Practice mindfulness or meditation<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Take 15 minutes now and again to meditate or breathe mindfully. When your thoughts start to wander, patiently center them again. In the long-term, meditation can help you reduce stress, sleep better and feel more balanced. Mindful breathing decreases the heartrate, improves blood pressure and even lowers the risk of heart disease.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"9\">\n<li><strong><em>Be thankful<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>When you feel bad or stressed, stop and spend 15 minutes considering what you can be thankful for. It could be something small like good weather or a delicious meal. Or bigger things, like having a roof over your head, a nice group of friends or good health. Focusing on the positive will put you in a good mood and reduce stress.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"10\">\n<li><strong><em>Take a power nap<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-5844\" src=\"https:\/\/aramark-foodboost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/meditieren-entspannen-relax-frau-400.jpg\" alt=\"Meditieren, entspannen und relaxen\" width=\"400\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aramark-foodboost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/meditieren-entspannen-relax-frau-400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/aramark-foodboost.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/meditieren-entspannen-relax-frau-400-150x95.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Sleep is a reliable way to recharge your batteries, help you focus and get yourself in a better mood. If you nap during the day, keep it short so you that don\u2019t fall into a deep sleep and struggle to get going again. Set an alarm for 15 minutes and wake up refreshed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>TAKE15 tips<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Make Take15 a habit. Plan at least one 15-minute break every day. And add a few more if you like. Try to spread them over the course of the day. You can take them at scheduled times or whenever you feel the pressure building up.<\/p>\n<p>Use a stopwatch to time your break so that you really do just take 15 minutes. Of course, taking longer would be more fun. But then you might spend too much time on your break, which in the end might stress you out again or make you feel dissatisfied. And that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019re trying to avoid.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;intro&#8221;]So many tasks, so many emails, so much to do \u2013 it really can be stressful.
