Digital Marketing Not Working? Here's Why, and How to Fix It Before the rise of the Internet, it was a lot harder to spread the word about a new business. If you were selling a new product or service, and if you couldn’t afford television or radio advertising, you were pretty much limited to posters, flyers, and billboards. Nowadays, almost anyone can advertise online—but that doesn’t mean they get better results. The world of digital marketing is highly competitive, and ti

How Storytelling Boosts Neuromarketing Success Before the written word was commonplace, humans used storytelling to communicate important information and to motivate each other.

When the Amygdala Takes Over We Become Irrational Being a parent is a very difficult job, obviously. You’re handed a little human that is vulnerable, completely dependent, and can’t tell you how they’re feeling. All the parenting courses and books in the world can’t prepare you for having to raise a little mind to be a big mind who is healthy, happy, and a good person. But if you’re a parent that’s there for your kids and doing your best, you deserve a round of applause because it’s a tireless job. Your young kids don’t know how to regulate their emotions, and due to amygdala hijack, you may sometimes forget how to as well. Being a parent is also a rewarding job, and parents usually

A New Way of Looking at Our Consciousness You're conscious, right? I mean, you’re here reading this right now, so you must be a little conscious. This isn’t you having a dream; you’re really here so if you’re reading this you must be awake too. And you are aware of what you are reading, aren’t you? You navigated your way to this blog post intentionally and are now reading it. You’re in control of yourself, and you have the ability to reflect on the fact that you made your way here intentionally and are reading a neuroscience blog post. That is because our conscious mind allows us to be aware of what we are doing, why we are doing it, and to anticipate what might happen because of what we are doing. That’s our understanding of it anyway. The brain is an inc

Challenge Negativity by Reframing Your Thoughts Whether we’re active or asleep, our brains are constantly working. So this means we are constantly thinking. That’s just the way our brains work. Without realizing it, there are always thoughts going through our heads. And it’s not like we can control what we’re thinking about either; thoughts come and go. This can lead to an issue when it comes to negative intrusive thoughts.

Being Bored Has Its Benefits It sounds like it should be hard to be bored these days. We all have pieces of technology that can reach around the world and stream series and movies in an instant. We can constantly be in contact on social media where we are flooded by a stream of posts. The internet provides us with infinite content. We can get access to interesting information, exciting fiction, or even nondescript nonsense of a quirky nature. And yet we still find ourselves getting bored. Well it turns out, feeling bored can lead to brain stimulation! Stimulating our brain keeps us mentally active. It’s impor

How You Can Boost Your Brain Health With Physical Exercise A healthy body requires work. We have to eat right and we have to exercise. But it’s not always that easy. There are those of us who like to spend the weekends in front of the TV or on the computer and not going too far (at least not on our own two legs). Then there are those of us who don’t seem to be able to just sit down and relax! The kind of people who go for a run and go to the gym in the same day! These people were seemingly, as Bruce Springsteen might put it, born to run. And they usually look like they work out too, with massive arms and well-toned bodies! For most of us that’s a dream that we probably won’t get to any time soon. Thankfully, there is a comfortable middle ground between being built like an Olympian and never doing any significant physical activity. But—and this is important—science has shown that exercise is not only beneficial, but necessary for our well-being. In fact, it can actually boost our brain health! The brain is the control center of the body, so we absolutel

How Goals Can Be a Powerful Tool for Getting Organized Psychology is the study of the mind, and it is an area full of different theories and ideas!
