Listen Later

In this thought-provoking clip, cognitive science expert and psychologist Dr. Jen Blanchette and myself delve into a topic that's becoming increasingly relevant in our tech-savvy world – the impact of overtaxing our brains and the crucial role of "eyeball time" in maintaining optimal cognitive function.

Are we pushing our cognitive abilities to the brink, and what are the consequences of this high-tech lifestyle?

Join us as we explore the fascinating relationship between our brains and the amount of time we spend gazing at screens, multitasking, and constantly engaging in mentally demanding activities.

Dr. Jen Blanchette, with her extensive background in cognitive science and neurology, sheds light on the importance of giving our brains a break, or what she refers to as "eyeball time."

We'll discover how our brains need moments of respite to process, learn, and rejuvenate. In this clip, Jen shares valuable insights on how this cognitive downtime can boost creativity, problem-solving, and overall mental health.
