Neuware - 'Addicted to work Stop what you're doing and read this book' Anna Lembke, author of Dopamine NationWhen was the last time you let yourself do nothing - not scrolling while eating a sandwich, but nothing at all We are constantly told to make the most of our time. Stop procrastinating. Optimise. To be happy, creative and successful requires discipline and focus. The most important thing is to be efficient with every precious hour.But when we let our brains rest, and our minds wander, something magical happens: the brain's 'default network' switches on, and suddenly we are able to think in completely new ways.Blending science and personal stories with practical tips, Dr Joseph Jebelli reveals how neuroscience is solving the mystery of the brain at rest, with profound implications for intelligence, creativity and even life expectancy.If we dare to break the taboo surrounding rest, we will find that long baths, walks in nature, meditation and simple daydreaming are the key to a happier, healthier - and ironically, more productive - life.'In a stressed-out society where we think we should be constantly on the go, this excellent book is precisely what we need to stop, reset, and rest. I learned so much from it.' Johann Hari, author of Stolen Focus.

Sinopsis

Want to increase your productivity, be more creative, and protect your health, all with zero effort? Discover the surprising science of the brain at rest in the inspiring new book from the critically acclaimed neuroscientist.

'Jebelli’s spotlighting of the cognitive benefits is supremely helpful… The Brain at Rest is inspiring and practical' Johanna Thomas-Corr, Sunday Times

'If you want to accomplish more, without any relaxation guilt, this book is for you' Chris Bailey, bestselling author of Hyperfocus and The Productivity Project

We are constantly told to make the most of our time: to stop procrastinating, to 'optimise' and be efficient with every precious hour.

But when we let our brains rest, and our minds wander, something magical happens: the brain’s ‘default network’ switches on, and we are able to think in completely new ways.

Drawing on groundbreaking new research, neuroscientist Dr Joseph Jebelli reveals the simple and easy steps to change your life for the better, including how:
� Napping and gentle exercise can enhance brain size
� Spending time in nature can boost creativity and problem-solving skills
� Silence fosters the growth of new brain cells

Blending science and personal stories with practical tips, The Brain At Rest is the life-changing guide to living a happier, healthier – and ironically, more productive – life.
