So 12-15 mins + 10 laying down. Twice. ~ 40 mins or so per day you’re taking to sit/lay and do nothing (I assume you aren’t on the phone or reading/listening).

I wonder how much of this is simply the meditation effect / you’re just taking true mental breaks.

Yes that’s about right, no phone or anything, I just close my eyes. Sometimes I fall asleep.

It is very possible, that this is simply what it takes to sent my mind into a mental break.

I have tried Headspace and all that stuff and I see the benefits, it is just much easier to send your mind into relax mode after above mentioned schedule.

I've meditated a fair bit and done sauna a fair bit. The heat is definitely adding something different and a bit euphoric.
