Do you feel like you’re recharging your phone more than yourself? Learn how to re-energize yourself and spend your work breaks efficiently with GatorCare’s Boost program. As a part of the 12 Tweaks to a Healthier You program, August’s challenge provides tips to stay productive and focused throughout the workday.

Rethink the way you work. We tend to work harder and longer and spend less time working on refueling our mind and body. If we neglect our breaks during the day, we are exhausted by the time we get home, which makes it harder to have meaningful interactions with family and friends.

• Don’t skip work breaks.
• Use breaks effectively by choosing activities that leave you feeling renewed, like taking a five-minute walk.
• Incorporate micro breaks — activities that are two minutes or less — throughout your day to refuel more frequently.
