The logic of “I’m tired, I should rest” can fail.

So if you feel low energy for no clear reason, movement may help you feel more energized than watching Netflix or scrolling.

The brain has no pain receptors but it processes pain signals from the rest of the body.

Wild that the organ that makes you feel pain can’t feel pain itself.

We've all switched to digital note-taking because it's convenient.

But research shows that handwritten notes are remembered better.

The trade-off:
