Listen "Beat Burnout with a 15-Minute Midday Reset: Micro Habits for High-Performers"
Episode Synopsis
What if a single 15-minute block in your calendar could steady your focus, elevate decision-making, and reduce afternoon drag? Professor, business and wellness coach Dr. Christiane Schroeter joins us to share her Petite Practice framework—small steps that drive measurable gains in productivity and calm without overhauling your life.We cover how to design a personalized "wellness block" that actually fits your workflow, why midday timing powers creativity and problem-solving, and how to avoid the snack drawer/doom-scroll trap. Dr. Schroeter also breaks down her S.T.E.P. method (Simplify, Tell, Examine, Praise) to turn “productive procrastination” into real progress. If you skip this one, expect more busywork and fewer breakthroughs when you need them most.Chapters:[00:00] - Welcome & the case for small shifts over big changes[01:05] - The 15-minute wellness block: what it is and why it works[03:10] - Why midday timing boosts creativity and productivity[05:00] - Personalizing your break: body–mind–spirit options[07:15] - Avoiding doom scroll and the snack drawer[08:40] - Turning chaos into “simmer time” for better ideas[10:05] - The S.T.E.P. framework: Simplify, Tell, Examine, Praise[13:00] - Celebrating progress: dinner downloads and momentum[14:30] - Petite Practice & TEDx preview[15:50] - Where to connect and next stepsLike this video, Comment with your thoughts, and Subscribe to Harmonious at Lunch!Download the full podcast here: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/harmonious-at-lunch/id1722490295 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2CIVZu21nyAbhHuO0nskRq?si=3d1f729fa9a743bd iHeart: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-harmonious-at-lunch-163898157/ Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/uo2Aj4gmSTb Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/cb240cab-0e14-4923-8c75-03fe1b21e3ef/harmonious-at-lunchor strategies to achieve greater clarity in yourself and your employees, visit the HumanOp Website: https://humanop.com/Learn more from Dr. Christiane Schroeter: Be first to watch her TEDx talk and get a teaser from her book "Runway to the Red Dot": https://doctorchristiane.comConnect with Dr. Christiane: Facebook: https://facebook.com/doctorchristiane Instagram: https://instagram.com/@doctor.christiane Amazon Shop: https://www.amazon.com/shop/doctor.christiane LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/christianeschroeter/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hello.happy.nest Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/doctor.christiane/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@doctor.christiane Threads: https://www.threads.net/@doctor.christiane X (Twitter): https://x.com/Christiane_711Follow Harmonious at Lunch: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/humanoptechnologies/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HumanOpTech LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/humanop-technologies-inc/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@humanoptech#Productivity #EntrepreneurWellness #MicroHabits #TimeManagement #BurnoutPreventionFor strategies to achieve greater clarity in yourself and your employees, visit the HumanOp Website: https://humanop.com/Learn more from Dr. Christiane Schroeter: Be first to watch her TEDx talk and get a teaser from her book "Runway to the Red Dot": https://doctorchristiane.comConnect with Dr. Christiane: Facebook: https://facebook.com/doctorchristiane Instagram: https://instagram.com/@doctor.christiane Amazon Shop: https://www.amazon.com/shop/doctor.christiane LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/christianeschroeter/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hello.happy.nest Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/doctor.christiane/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@doctor.christiane Threads: https://www.threads.net/@doctor.christiane X (Twitter): https://x.com/Christiane_711Follow Harmonious at Lunch: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/humanoptechnologies/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HumanOpTech LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/humanop-technologies-inc/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@humanoptech#Productivity #EntrepreneurWellness #MicroHabits #TimeManagement #BurnoutPreventionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/harmonious-at-lunch/exclusive-content
