What a Difference 15 Minutes Can Make Making healthful changes takes less time than you may think. Booster Breaks take advantage of regularly scheduled work breaks and give employees an easy and enjoyable way to replace unhealthful break activities, such as smoking or eating junk food, with healthier alternatives. These small changes, made in a supportive environment, give employees a simple way to develop healthy habits that they will carry with them, both on and off the job. Booster Breaks empower employees to make positive lifestyle changes, and help them to: * Reduce stress * Improve morale * Increase productivity * Enhance health and well-being Booster Breaks are a new way of thinking about work breaks. They provide the support and encouragement employees need to take a break from bad habits and form healthful new habits.
