According to experts, just closing your eyes and meditating for a half hour a day is enough to recharge your brain. In fact, it may be more effective than napping: A study revealed that subjects who took a late-afternoon test after meditating for 30 minutes had higher scores than those who napped for the same time.

3. Don't be a slave to technology.
Computers, cell phones, and BlackBerrys are all designed to make you more efficient, but according to some experts, an overreliance on these gadgets could have the opposite effect.
