Online · At your desk

Start the timer. Do nothing until it ends.

You needNothing

No task, no input, no plan for the next thing. Two minutes is short enough to feel slightly ridiculous and long enough to notice how rarely you allow it.

How to do it

  • 1Start the timer and put the phone face down.
  • 2No task, no input, no plan. Sit.
  • 3When the chime sounds, that is it.

An experience, not a claim. Offered as a way to take a break. Away makes no health claim for it.
