Most of us experience a mid-day slump, somewhere between 1 and 3pm.
While we might feel pressured to push through, caffeinate, or use cortisol to power through, research shows us that just 20-minutes of rest can actually rejuvenate our energy, significantly boost our dopamine levels, and make our focus and productivity that much more robust for the remainder of the day.
