Walk around Meditate

  1. Walk around

i'am always here for you

Hi!

I think Walk around is best exercise.

True friendship is like a pretty flower,
Worn close to the heart...
Never gets withered
by age,
but gets more beautiful
with time...
Here's to our friendship
that's so precious to me!
I want like your friendship!
get me?

 Best Regards,

N.Saravanan

Smiley

 I think a small food break is the best option.

friendship is like smile.

u r very wrong....loving some1 is the worest thing

love is not a candy

its better to eat chocolate and be merry than to love and it taste sour after you tasted it!

I voted "Exercise"

I voted "Exercise" but like you I just take a walk to kinda of take a step back as it were and can other sit back down with a fresh view on the project at hand.

This was a lot more effective when I lived near a town, I could walk to the shops and buy an ice cream or drink.. now I just have to walk around my garden.

Yeah Walk

Yeah ! Just walk around for few min!

I'm feeling myself =)

 

quick break?

haha. That funny! I am not alone.

I walk around or go for a walk with our Border Collie in the Nature reserve we live next to.

Smiling is infectious,
You can catch it like the flu.

When someone smiled at me today,
I started smiling too.

I passed around the corner,
and someone saw my grin.

When he smiled, I realised,
I had passed it on to him.

I thought about the grin
and then realised its worth.

A single smile like mine
could travel round the Earth.

So if you feel a smile begin,
don`t leave it undetected.

Lets start an epidemic quick,
and get the world infected…

what do you do when you take a break

I believe that a drink will refresh you anytime.

how 2 take a break

1. read some Dilbert strips

2. read some Garfield strips

3. enjoy nature 

browse the web

I generally just browse the web.  There are a few sites that I visit on a regular basis and a few browser-based games I play to relax.  Usually only takes about 15 mintues to do them all, then it's back to work!

Simplicy

Get some exercise at gym or take dog the for a walk. Exercise and air do a body good...I feel most other things can take place before and/or after work.
Lunch and coffee are for whimps. Meals during the day should be short, sweet and don't really require a major exodus from tasks at hand.

What I do on breaks

All of the above.

walk around

walk around is the quickest way to get a break without loosing your concentration and context of the work.

and usually i walk around after every 30 mins or so.

Break time

I keep a cup of coffee on my desk. When it's empty, I walk to the kitchen for another cup!

If I'm stressed I may go outside for a few minutes. I also find that prayer/meditation helps!

Do anything that will clear your mind. Sometimes a fresh look at the problem will reveal its' solution.
