A)  There should be a short break (about five minutes long),
every twenty minutes, to help artists and models to
concentrate properly, to change position, and to get a
fresh perspective.

B)  It is useful to have one long break, during sessions that
last two hours or longer, for conversation and refreshment.

C)  During breaks, it is helpful for models to move around and
socialize (without clothes, if the situation is sufficiently
comfortable).

D)  If possible, it can be helpful for models to have a look at
some of the artists' work.  This enhances interest and
respect on the part both of models and of artists, and helps
make the art work more satisfying as a mutual endeavor.
