Listen "147 The Magic of Micro Rests"
Episode Synopsis
Several studies show the benefits of interspersing breaks into your practice blocks. A 2021 publication offers a fun new way to experiment with breaks. Here's how you can apply this in your practice. Listen and try at home this week: 🔹 Practice a passage for 10-30 seconds (or for a set number of repetitions) 🔹 Rest for 10 seconds – breathe and release physical tension. Don't focus on anything. Just chill and let your mind drift! 🔹 Continue alternating practice and rest segments until you feel you've completed your work with the passage or the time you allotted for it is over. 🔹 Assess your progress.
