3. Have you ever considered incorporating more non-work breaks into your traditional 9-to-5 workday? The 2022 Brain Health Report by Muse suggests that adopting a nonlinear workday aligned with natural energy levels can lead to higher self-reported brain health scores. The idea is to align your productivity with your innate energy levels instead of pushing yourself to work when you're not naturally inclined to do so.
