Brain Break: Promoting a Healthy Lifestyle for Computer Users
Brain Break is a Chrome extension developed by viseeben that aims to promote a healthy lifestyle for individuals who spend a significant amount of time on their computers. This add-on provides random, gentle reminders throughout the workday to engage in simple yet beneficial activities.
With Brain Break, users can expect randomly timed reminders for healthy actions such as stretching, hydration, and gratitude reflection. These notifications are spaced out between 8 AM and 6 PM, ensuring minimal disruption to the user's workflow.
To use Brain Break, simply install the extension and pin it to your Chrome toolbar. It is essential to allow Chrome to send notifications in order to receive the reminders. Once installed, users can go about their day and wait for Brain Break to prompt them for a quick, healthy action.
To ensure that you receive the notifications, it is important to enable notifications for Chrome in your system's settings. On macOS, you can do this by going to System Preferences > Notifications, finding Chrome and Chrome Helper, and allowing notifications. On Windows, navigate to Settings > System > Notifications & actions, and enable notifications for Chrome. It is also recommended to keep Chrome running in the background to receive reminders throughout the day.
Embrace a healthier browsing experience with Brain Break and take small steps towards a healthier lifestyle!
