The Empowered Brain

Spending dedicated time doing something that brings you joy (with no other purpose than making you happy), is incredibly important.

 

Why? For one, you're worth it. This alone should be reason enough.

 

But here's another one, when we play and do things that bring us joy, we help our brain remodel into one that can thrive with life's everyday stressors.

 

And a thriving brain ensures you are more resilient, confident, and happy.

 

In this episode, you'll learn why it's so hard for us to do this and how to start.
