About this Event

👉 This is a free community brain training. Registration helps us plan ahead and helps you remember, but feel free to bring friends last minute!



Feeling drained, distracted, or mentally stuck?

✅ In this practical workshop, you’ll learn how social media, AI, and constant screen time wear down our focus, motivation, emotions, and mental strength. Indeed, the age of Geniuses and Polymaths seems to be a thing of the past - is there a reason for that?

Outsourcing our mental faculties comes with steep costs to life. You’ll learn to spot the signs of digital brain rot and leave with a simple tactic to test in daily life to regain clarity and control.

The antidote is to rejuvenate our individual creative thinking capacities, and sharpen our capacities to distinguish our own thinking from 'downloaded' or 'recycled' thoughts. With the right exercises to challenge your thinking and spark original ideas, we can kick-start these abilities, keep our heads above water and even swim purposefully in the midst of the digital deluge.

You’ll walk away with practical tools to cut through digital overload and refresh your mind.

Led by a neuroscientist and a physics researcher, this event blends science and hands-on practice to help you reclaim focus, creativity, and mental power in the digital age.
