💡 TED Talks 🎓 @ Your Library
The Library and Lanark Highlands Plan B are proud to announce the return of the TED Talks program – this time, in person! TED Talks are brief thought-provoking and relevant talks by experts that are designed to educate and inspire.
Our topic for the day is How to tame your wandering mind by Amishi Jha.
Amishi Jha studies how we pay attention: the process by which our brain decides what’s important out of the constant stream of information it receives. Both external distractions (like stress) and internal ones (like mind-wandering) diminish our attention’s power, Jha says — but some simple techniques can boost it. “Pay attention to your attention,” Jha says.
