Each issue we share three ways to do more in a 10-minute break.

1. Recall for your brain
   Tracking what we eat daily in a notebook or planner has been proven to assist in weight loss and management, but it can also assist our brains. Write down what you ate the previous day, each day, meal-by-meal. It's surprisingly challenging, but within weeks of practicing this daily you should notice an improvement in your memory prowess.


2. Eat a serve of fruit or vegetable
   As an eater of all food groups, consuming enough fruit and vegetables each day just got harder. Imperial College London recently found 10 serves or around 800 grams of fruit and vegetables a day the ideal amount if you want to live longer. So next time you're feeling peckish or reaching for a cookie, instead consider chomping on an apple, a banana, a cup of grapes or dipping a chopped carrots into some hummus.


3. Write freely
   Putting our feelings or thoughts to paper or into a notetaking app is said to be therapeutic. Not only that, but writing tends to improve with practice and it's often required in high school, university and in the workplace. If writing about your feelings or thoughts makes you squirm, you could start a notebook or even a blog about an interest or hobby of yours, documenting your activities or progress.
