Stand up every hour while I work
Every hour from 9 to 17 Minda posts a notice to stand up, stretch and look away from the screen for a minute. It is a ready-made workflow in Minda Super Intelligence, and you can change any step before you save it. It runs in the Minda app on your computer while Minda is open.
It runs in the Minda app: Automations → Templates → Stand up every hour while I work. Minda Super Intelligence for Windows is coming soon.
