Your Micro Break Reminder
The hardest part of a Micro Break is remembering to take one. Set gentle reminders here, then take 1–10 minutes for a Desktop Gym break right at your desk, with no hassle, special equipment or wardrobe needed.
This downloads a calendar file with your days and times. Open it to add the reminders to Outlook, Google, Apple, Proton, Tuta, Fastmail, Thunderbird and most other calendars. If your schedule changes, delete the old reminders and download a fresh file.
How it works
- Choose your days.
- Pick your reminder times, a repeating reminder (every 2, 3 or 4 hours during your workday), or both.
- Choose how you'd like to be reminded: a gentle chime, a pop-up, or both.
- Click "Start my reminders" and allow notifications if your browser asks.
- Keep this page open in a tab while you work. Reminders arrive even when you're in other programs.
- For reminders that work even with your browser closed, click "Add to my calendar" and open the file in your calendar app.
- When it's time, take a 1–10 minute Desktop Gym break. Use Snooze or Pause whenever you need to.
