Why fooling around, strolling in the streets and meditating are valuable for your brain Learn how to relax your brain Written by renowned stress and burnout expert Luc Swinnen

Our brain is always switched on. This constant overload of stimuli is mortal for our creativity and can cause burnout in the long run. But how can we train ourselves to really unwind? Because even when we are watching TV, our brain is still working.

Backed by the most recent neuroscientific studies, he shows that it’s necessary to put our brain in default mode once in a while if we want to survive the everyday rat race.

He explains why allowing your brain a rest from time to time is so important. He zooms in on scientifically proven methods you can do yourself, such as meditation, going for a walk, power naps, or doing nothing at all.
