The lunch break worth putting in your calendar.

The story

A break is easier to lose when it exists only as an intention. If your work allows, choose a realistic window and decide what you need from it: food, a little movement or a few minutes away from a screen.

Keep the plan practical. Not every day allows a leisurely lunch, and not everyone controls their schedule. A small adjustment that works in your circumstances is more useful than an ideal routine.

Notice what helps you return to the afternoon with a little more room. Repeat that when you can, without turning a missed break into another failure.
