In the always-on age of notifications, emails and the news cycle, it's easy to waste the majority of our days mindlessly scrolling.

Sleeplessness, anxiety, depression and burnout are just some of the consequences of feeling digitally overloaded.
In The Attention Fix, Hansen shares an informative guide to what unrestricted social media use is actually doing to our brains, and the practical steps we can take to break the addiction cycle. Unpacking the latest scientific research on the brain, he explains knowledge to cure your smartphone addiction and foster deep, single-task focus. By taking control of your screen time, you'll feel happier, healthier and more productive.

Anders gave a speech at my high school. Glad he's going international!

As a teacher, I find this so interesting. I can see why students' attention spans are getting worse and worse, and there are so many examples. I have students who don't remember something I've said on an exercise about 1 minute after I've said it! Had a suspicion some technologies were behind it, but I had no way of really knowing.
I'll definitely buy the book :)

I totally agree!

Great information! My grandchildren are at the age they'll be getting phones soon. I'm going to share the information with their parents about leaving the phones out of the bedroom at night. Super advice! Thank you for the video.

Dr Rhonda Patrick just did a really interesting research review on how social media and smart phones impact the developing brain. It's on her UA-cam channel too - foundmyfitness

Your scar stole my focus

[@english4nondummies]

I was immediately distracted when Anders said to climb a tree to look for bananas 😆

[@Damian-gd8lp]

Is it bad I've lost focus watching this?

[@juliashin3754]

What are his credentials?

[@zahrahroa1550]

He's a psychiatrist from Sweden.

[@suzieq390]

Google will tell you about him

[@happykillmore349]

Literally all of this was debunked a decade ago, and he even sites some of that work, and contradicts himself. Do you guys not believe in the scientific method, or peer reviews?

[@ExInferis.]

Please elaborate.

[@TrasteIAm]

I do believe in the scientific method. Please support your statement.
