Supercharge your brain by doing…nothing!

Received an invitation but don’t really feel like going out? Go ahead and (nicely) say, “No thanks!” And then don’t feel bad—indulging in that “me time” boosts your brainpower! Researchers at SUNY Buffalo State found that intentionally choosing to spend time alone reading or doing a hobby you enjoy boosts dopamine release to help the brain work at optimal efficiency and leave you feeling mentally revitalized.
