Yes it's completely true what you stated about "unnatural breaks". I also felt that way and I think the solution is maybe to use longer timespans. So, for example, I have a 90 minute timer called "Intense session" and afterwards I take a longer break during which I just relax. I recently found that it is called the "90/20 rule".

I hadn't heard of the 90/20 rule before. Sounds interesting, will try it.
