Published April 20, 2026, the report summarizes responses from 104 licensed and allied health practitioners surveyed in March 2026. It examines practitioner observations about screen-related mental fatigue, mid-afternoon cognitive depletion, short-break behaviors, and six reset methods designed to take approximately two minutes or less.
The report presents a limited selection of key findings. Sixty-eight percent of respondents said screen-related mental fatigue is common or very common among their adult clients. Practitioners rated physical movement, deep breathing, and stepping outside as the most effective methods evaluated, while social scrolling received the lowest average effectiveness rating among the six methods.
The report also addresses practitioner observations about tactile sensory activities as screen-free reset options. The findings are descriptive and should not be interpreted as evidence that any product or activity produces a therapeutic outcome.
