This Week's Strategy
The 20-Minute Rule That Stopped My Spiral
When burnout hits, most of us go one of two ways: we either push through aggressively or collapse entirely. Neither works. There's a third option that neuroscience actually supports...
💡 The research: A 2024 study found that 20-minute "active recovery" windows — light walks, music, or creative play — reduced cortisol by 23% more than passive rest.

This Week's Action
Block one 20-minute window today labeled "Recovery" in your calendar. Treat it like a meeting you cannot move.
