>Trying to sit still for 30 min without any stimulation at all (no talking, watching, reading) sounds like torture to me.
Those of us over 40 have already had plenty of this in our lives, it used to be such a common part of life! Waiting for appointments, waiting for the bus, etc. before smartphones. My first job had two hours between lunch and dinner service. I only had about 15 minutes of work during that time, so it was hour plus of almost entirely idle time every shift.
Pre-smart phone era I would bring a book on the bus or sleep.
