Example

Zoe used “blasts” to break up long stretches of working from home. Between meetings, she’d do 30 seconds of jumping jacks, high knees, or just dance around like a lunatic. It didn’t feel like exercise, but it jolted her awake and helped her focus. Eventually, she started looking forward to those bursts. Her energy levels were more stable, and she felt less like a desk zombie by 3 p.m.
