The dreaded1 mid-afternoon slump2 at work can often leave you feeling uninterested and demotivated.
 
可怕的下午三点倦怠症常导致你在工作中兴致缺缺，失去动力。
 
Experts are convinced they've devised just that with the WIN routine - a two-step sequence designed to slot into even the busiest of days.
 
Experts at the Almond Board of California have teamed up with three experts in the fields of mindfulness, yoga and nutrition to create the WIN (wellness, inspiration and nutrition) sequence; a 15-minute routine they say delivers peace of mind, muscle relieving exercises and a nutrient3 boost in just two simple steps.
 
Step one involves tackling physical tension with a few simple stretches. You begin by turning your chin to your left shoulder before inhaling4 then exhaling5 to draw your chin down past the chest to the other shoulder. Inhale6 and repeat this side to side three times.
 
Next, inhale and lift your shoulders to your ears, holding the breath in. Exhale7 through your mouth and release the shoulders before repeating this three times.
 
After that, sit on the floor to lengthen8 your spine9. Exhale to take your left arms across the right thigh10 and twist to the right. Hold for four breaths and repeat on the other side.
 
By refocusing on your breath, experts say this refocuses the mind and makes you more alert.
 
The second step involves calming the mind and banishing11 stress, according to experts. It involves taking a pen and paper, absorbing your surroundings and drawing inspiration from what's around you.
