Nachdem ich über die Vorteile des Klatschens gelesen hatte, probierte ich es an einem trägen Morgen im Büro aus. Ich stand vom Schreibtisch auf und klatschte rhythmisch, sogar mit ein bisschen Wippen, damit es Spaß macht. Schon nach einer Minute fühlte ich mich wacher und energetischer. Es kam mir zuerst etwas albern vor, aber die Veränderung war echt. Ich musste über mich selbst lachen und fühlte mich gleichzeitig bereit für meine To-do-Liste. Heute nutze ich das als schnellen Reset, wenn ich am Nachmittag in ein Tief falle. Besonders gut funktioniert es zwischen Meetings oder während der Kaffee durchläuft. Ich habe sogar ein paar Kolleg:innen dazu gebracht mitzumachen!
