Rhythm
Meeting the afternoon dip with kindness, not more coffee
Many people feel their energy sag after lunch. Simple ways to work with that slump, and how Jambu learns when yours tends to arrive.

For a lot of people, the hour or two after lunch is the hardest part of the day. Focus drifts, tasks take longer, and the temptation is to push through with another coffee.
Working with it instead of against it
- Save lighter tasks — replies, tidying, planning — for the slower stretch.
- Get up and move for a few minutes, ideally somewhere with daylight.
- Drink some water; it's easy to forget during a busy morning.
- Actually step away from the screen for lunch, if your day allows it.
Your dip, not an average
Everyone's rhythm is different. Jambu learns yours from timestamps, session length and idle state, so over time it can tell when your days usually slow down. On a day when the dip comes early, it might offer a short pause rather than a fixed reminder at the same minute every day.
A slow afternoon isn't a failing. It's information.
