What is this micro reflection? Is it of any use?

You may not have heard much about micro reflections: brief pauses, lasting just a minute, to stop and observe how you feel, what you think, or what you need. It sounds simple. But does it really work?

The answer is yes. And we don’t say this lightly; science backs it up.

A study published in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology found that taking brief mindful breaks during the workday can reduce stress and improve overall well-being.

These small interruptions act as mental stretches, helping your brain to reset and maintain focus.

JAMA Network Open found that a brief mindfulness-based program was effective in reducing stress in healthcare professionals, significantly impacting mental and emotional well-being.

Another study in PLOS ONE showed that short sessions of focused attention improved emotional regulation and overall well-being.

Psychology Today highlighted that they can reduce anxiety, depression, and pain, improving perceived quality of life.
