Time for a 3-minute break.
November 23, 2015
Sometimes, it is good for the mind to stare at a video, and follow what is going on inside. Just for a few minutes. Taking a break from work or studying may actually help to focus better. Just try. #TakeABreak #JustTryThis. This happened in San Francisco, by the way. Content by Lupita Peimbert.
