About

This simple program tries to remind users of healthy habits, including the

20-20-20 Rule

The 20-20-20 rule is a guideline that suggests taking regular breaks to help reduce eye strain and fatigue caused by prolonged screen time. The rule is often recommended for individuals who spend long hours in front of digital screens, such as computers, smartphones, and tablets.

52/17 Rule

The 52/17 rule states that for every 52 minutes of work or focused activity, you should take a break of 17 minutes. During this break, it is recommended to engage in activities that help relax and recharge your mind, such as stretching, walking, deep breathing, or any other activity that provides a mental and physical break from your work.

Instructions

Setup

Assuming Python is installed,

  1. pip install plyer

Use

  1. python main.py

And that's it! The program will run in the terminal until you end it. It will gracefully handle CTRL + c and finish. Keep an eye on your notifications!
