During the busy holiday season, when households are brimming with activity, taking out the trash offers a rare moment to regroup while clearing clutter for a refreshing boost to mental clarity, and Hefty's Trash Time Out campaign revolves around these ideas.
The new mobile Trash Time Out website invites people to indulge in moments to themselves with guided meditations, breathing exercises, and a rage timer to provide relief during high times of holiday stress and tension. These tools recognize research from Frontiers in Psychology, which suggests that just 10 minutes outside—about the time it takes to take out the trash—can significantly alleviate stress and boost happiness.
With the Trash Time Out campaign, Hefty emphasizes the strength and support it helps to provide during the hectic holiday season and beyond.
