A micro-pause visual reset is a ten-to-thirty-second distant gaze and full blink between tasks—useful when long breaks are delayed during flow.
A micro-pause visual reset is ten to thirty seconds looking far away and blinking fully—usable between sentences, slides, or compile cycles without leaving the chair. It keeps ciliary muscles from locking during flow state when twenty-minute breaks feel impossible.
