‘We are essentially never letting our brains actually rest.’ – A Podcast Host Shared A Life Hack About How To Restore Your Energy More Efficiently

If you’re the kind of person who suffers a HUGE energy crash in the middle of every workday, you’re gonna want to pay attention to this video.

It comes from a podcast host named Liz and she gave viewers some good advice about how people can restore their energy during the day.

Liz told viewers, “If all you want at 3 p.m. every day is to take a nap, take real micro recovery breaks.”

She continued, “We are terrible at using breaks to actually recover, to rest and restore ourselves. We scroll on Instagram or TikTok or the news, and you probably don’t need me to say this to you because you probably feel it intuitively in the moment.”

Liz added, “We are essentially never letting our brains actually rest.”

The TikTokker then asked viewers, “So, what is actually restful?”

She said, “Just look far away.”

Liz explained, “You might have heard of this for reducing eyestrain and headaches, but looking off into the distance actually activates the default mode network of neurons in our brains that’s going to facilitate recovery.”

Give it a shot!

Take a look at the video.
