Focus timer with exercise breaks
25 minutes of focus, then 5 minutes of break. The break is not a scroll through the news but a few short exercises and a look into the distance.

Keep this tab open. Browsers may slow down timers in background tabs, so a break can come a few seconds late.
Why this works
Short breaks during work reduce discomfort and fatigue and don't make work worse. A break with a bit of movement and a look into the distance gives the eyes and muscles more rest than a break with the phone.
