1. You're feeling negative. You are feeling bored and are having difficulty
mustering up (собрать) motivation to get your work done. Everyone and
everything about your job annoys (раздражает) you, and you are feeling
neither (ни) satisfied (удовлетворён) nor (ни) fulfilled (иметь чувство
того, что всё выполнено) when it comes to the daily grind (трудовые будни)
and your overall (общая) career path. If these negative thoughts seep
(просочиться) into your personal life, it's time for a break.
2. You're in physical pain. When you feel anxious (тревожным) or
overwhelmed (перегруженным) at work, your brain
releases (вырабатывает) stress hormones as a “fight-or-flight” response
(бей или беги ответную реакцию) to whatever is causing the stress. Over
time, the less benign (безвредные) physiological consequences
(последствия) of this chemical reaction – increased pulse rate, blood pressure
(кровяное давление), sweating (потение) – can lend (оказать) themselves to
more severe symptoms (тяжёлые симптомы) like chest pain, back aches
(боль), eye strain (чрезмерное напряжение зрения), headaches,
gastrointestinal problems, dizziness (головокружение), and fainting
(обмороки). The exhaustion (истощение) that comes with a heavy workload
can also weaken (ослабляет) your immune system and make you more
susceptible (склонным) to cold viruses, the flu, and infections.

difficult to unwind (расслабиться) before bedtime, fall asleep, and even stay
asleep. The American Psychological Association reports that a third of
millenials do not get the recommended eight hours of sleep each night because
