Social Media Rewires Your Brain | Concord News

from Concord News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

While our brains evolved to seek new survival cues, platforms like TikTok exploit this wiring with memes and videos, leaving users drained despite hours of “entertainment.” Scientists are now exploring ways to redesign digital experiences and teach users mindful consumption strategies to break the cycle and reclaim focus and well-being.
