Toilets Are Meditation Time

Nate (no last name that I can find) - Don't use your phone while you poop: When we stop feeding our brains constant input, they can finally attend to the housekeeping of the mind. In this state they'll consolidate memories, connect ideas, process emotions, and most likely generate high-scoring Scrabble words. If our brains were pizza chefs, they would take down those spinning pies you've been juggling and slide them neatly into the brick oven to bake. Then, and only then, could you take new orders from the endless line of customers at the door. I of course had to link to this because of the analogy used. But yea, give yourself some time away from the screen whenever you can. And while you’re at it, maybe take a walk or drive without listening to podcasts for a bit.
