Evidence shows that more work is not better work. In fact, just the opposite is true. Plus, by ignoring your body’s and your mind’s need for a break, you’re risking your health.
Top Reasons For Not Taking A Lunch Break
1. I have too much work.
2. I need the time to get organized for the afternoon.
3. No one else takes a break, why should I?
4. There isn't anything else I want to do.
5. I'm going use that time to check my emails.
It doesn’t have to be a full hour (although we hope you’ll build up to that) – but it does have to be a real break that is away from your desk. Better yet – away from the building!
Bring your headphones and go for a walk while listening to Lite 106.9! Explore the local museum or art gallery. Visit the library. Have a nutritious lunch with a friend. Whatever you do, we’re sure you’ll return to work refreshed, refocused, re-energized and relaxed.

What others are saying
- Lunch breakI work at Kindercare...with toddlers...I go and lock myself in the car where it is quiet and sit for an hour. No one calling me, no one hollering for me, just total peace and quiet. If I don't I will loose my mind.
- Lunch BreakI try to get away from the office every day. If the weather isn't cooperative enought to go for a walk outside, I'll go to the grocery or for a stroll through Target.
