Is Your Phone Killing Your Creativity? 3 Ways to Boost Brain Health | Tj Power

from Live Well Be Well with Sarah Ann Macklin | Health, Lifestyle, Nutrition · host Sarah Ann Macklin

Can boredom and daydreaming actually boost creativity and calm? Here, I’m discussing how a solo writing sprint in nature left my HRV higher and my mind clearer, then we examine the default mode and executive networks, task switching, and screen-free habits. This clip explores the Meals, Bedroom, Bathroom rule for no phones, the value of nature time, and reframing boredom as daydreaming to restore the brain. We talk practical steps for dopamine-heavy habits, why reflection improves decisions, and how daydreaming can spark ideas and support mental health.
