In this episode, we'll peek at why scrolling isn't a "willpower" problem, but an exploitation of your brain's reward systems (kinda like slot machines!). We'll cover the neuroscience behind the prefrontal cortex "battling" dopamine loops, and how stress makes it worse. We'll also talk about practical strategies that actually WORK with your brain's design, so you can ditch any guilt and reclaim control. . . . oh hi & welcome to “Not Entirely Unlike Tea” – i’m christine collins & i love...

is it high IQ, neuroD, or both? Traits that overlap & tools for "flow state"
In this episode, we'll peek at traits that some say make people "highly intelligent" - but neuroscience suggests they might actually be signs of neurodivergence. We'll talk about the brain science behind getting bored quickly, being a night owl, hyper-focusing, and being self-critical. We'll also consider tools for getting into flow state when creativity needs a boost. . . . oh hi & welcome to “Not Entirely Unlike Tea” – i’m christine collins & i love reflecting on mindset, psychology...
