#mindfulproductivity #mentalhealth #psychology #brainWhere anxiety comes from #psychology #brain #mentalhealthAnne-Laure Le Cunff2023-10-16 | ...Feeling lonely? Watch this.Anne-Laure Le Cunff2023-10-12 | It feels awful to be lonely. But somehow we seek solace in solitude. Why are these two experiences of being alone so different?
While loneliness and solitude share their basis into the same fundamental experience, the way we interact with this experience gives rise to two different mental states.

#mindfulproductivity #mentalhealth #psychology #brainA hidden 6th sense called interoceptionAnne-Laure Le Cunff2023-10-05 | Did you know that you have a sixth sense? And accessing it can help you change how you see the world and navigate life.
Interoception is how you understand your body’s inner sensations. It’s your brain’s ability to sense what’s happening inside the body and adjust accordingly. It's the key to better nervous system control. And recent research suggests that this sixth sense may play a key role in our well-being and even our sense of self.
If you want to start practicing interception, I have created a simple tool called Interoceptive Journaling. Try the prompts here: nesslabs.com/interoceptive-journaling

#mindfulproductivity #mentalhealth #psychology #brainWhy your brain is designed for lazinessAnne-Laure Le Cunff2023-09-28 | Feeling lazy isn't a sign of weakness – it's actually a very useful function of your brain! 🧠
In the wild, conserving energy was a survival tactic, leading us to instinctively choose the path of least resistance. Every choice we face undergoes a cerebral cost-benefit analysis: is the effort worth it or should I conserve my energy? Going against this natural inclination consumes even more brain power.
But here's the thing: you can use laziness to your advantage, which can make you more creative, more productive, and even happier.

(choosing the right note-taking app)Anne-Laure Le Cunff2021-06-11 | The note-taking tools market is projected to reach $1.35B by 2026. The good thing is: there is a note-taking app for everyone. The not-so-great thing: with a new note-taking app popping up every single week, it can be hard to decide which one is the best for your use case. Are you an architect, a gardener, or a librarian?
