Ultradian rhythms are natural cycles of activity and rest that occur throughout the day, typically lasting 90-120 minutes. Understanding and aligning work with these rhythms can enhance focus and productivity while preventing burnout.

What are Ultradian Rhythms?

Ultradian rhythms are biological cycles that occur every 90-120 minutes, alternating between periods of heightened focus and rest. These rhythms play a key role in maintaining energy and cognitive function throughout the day.
