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."
