Mind Management:
The Scientific Reasons You Need to Increase Focus and Stop Task Switching
Dr. Mary Kelley

We all do it... Call it multitasking, task-switching, or just being good old jugglers. We've been taught to believe that it's a superpower or a strength to be a multitasker, but the science shows that it's actually draining your cognitive resources. We don't just lose time and productivity. Task switching also causes us to become more forgetful, less effective, and increases our level of stress. Our world is not set up to support our ability to remain focused, with constant notifications and distractions coming at us from all angles. This Expert Lab will walk us through the neuroscience, offer a hands-on activity that demonstrates the science in action, and give us the tools we need to set us up for success in developing greater focus and improving well-being.
