1. Establish good sleep habits. Sleep is how the body recovers from stress. 2. Exercise daily. Movement is how the body puts the stress hormones to work. 3. Eat well. The gut-brain connection drives how we feel as we digest.

I was skeptical on XR until I saw the health and care applications - typically short sessions 30-60 mins with high market value if solving a medical need. The long duration uses, like work or entertainment, seem unlikely any time soon, too

The autonomic nervous system and the glymphatic nervous system are both things I never really learned about in schools. ANS is taught as a textbook fact of homeostasis, not the constant fight-or-flight reflex that’s on every second of every

Neuroscientist here. Closer I got to the physiology of mental health - sleep, stress, exercise, and nutrition - realized it was another fractal for personal and population health. Problem remains navigating regulatory or reimbursement hurdl

Yes, just why assume a multiverse and not a megaverse? Of course, the superhero movies (which I enjoy) give an unrealistic view of what a multiverse would be.

The report described a dramatic case wherein Apple reportedly had met with Masimo and was interested in a deal to incorporate their advanced technology associated with what became the PPG sensors on the backside of the Apple Watch. Yet onc

Instead of one big bang, imagine an infinite number of big bangs, all colliding on a cosmic scale in time and space. That’s not necessarily a multiverse, but it is a megaverse with universe as the old paradigm.

I was raised on this era - you could go down quite the rabbit hole branching out from McClelland and Geoff Hinton. They were trying to reflect the brain and so backprop was initially seen as a shortcut that could be done away with once more

I buy this argument by pointing out the necessity of sleep for core brain functions. Good luck living or working well if you’re not sleeping well. And yet, how many of us have gone years without good sleep?

How is your sleep? If you’ve gone years without good sleep, the damage could be accumulating into cognitive functions.

You have a say - go to your town’s planning and zoning commission, find others with similar concerns, and force votes on the legality of a full-time hotel next door.

That’s a great one. I’ve been looking for something that links the physiology with knowledge work and life demands, but I haven’t found it yet.

The autonomic nervous system and the adrenal cortex. Homeostasis is taught as a textbook fact, the body reverting to a baseline over time. What’s not taught is how much the impacts of daily life events drive a continuous stress response. Fi
