Sure, here are the provided points formatted as level 2 headers:
## Methods
### The Pomodoro Technique
This technique involves breaking your work into short, focused intervals (usually 25 minutes) followed by a short break (5 minutes). After completing four cycles, you take a longer break (15-30 minutes). This aligns with the shorter periods of high energy in the ultradian rhythm and helps prevent burnout.
### 90-120 Minute Work Cycles
Given that the ultradian rhythm typically spans 90-120 minutes, you can work in 90-minute cycles followed by a 15-30 minute break. This allows you to capitalize on your peak energy periods and then recharge during the break.
### Task Batching
Group similar tasks together and tackle them during the same 90-120 minute ultradian cycle. For example, work on emails, meetings, and other administrative tasks during one cycle, and then switch to focused, creative work in the next cycle.
## My Method
I personally like to incorporate all of these methods:
### My Cycle
I prefer the 90-120 minute cycles. In the morning I will strive for 120, but sometimes during the evening I feel like I can only work for 90 minutes max and will plan accordingly.
Since the things I do during my long breaks are somewhat lengthy (watching a 20+ minute, making food and eating, napping),
I also like to
### Break
I tend to have my 5-minute breaks not every 30 minutes, but as reminders 5 minutes before my next task.
When I see it, I can choose to either take the break, or continue going if I'm in flow, making them optional.
