Become more efficient, focused and energized. The human brain is the most advanced processor ever invented and can process enormous amounts of information every second. In our modern, accelerated world, the brain struggles to keep up.

When smartphones vibrate in your pocket, smartwatches send signals, and notifications constantly bombard the screen, the brain is pushed to its limit – especially without sufficient rest. Lack of breaks impairs our ability to acquire new knowledge, solve problems effectively and maintain attention to each other.

Brain researcher Troels W. Kjær presents insights from the latest neuroscience research and explains why it is crucial to periodically unplug and give the mind necessary downtime.

The event is part of Folk University's knowledge festival Hearts & Minds.
