r - Storing a memory involves distant parts of the brain

"Neuropsychologist here. I have no idea why you have a bad memory and
certainly can't give you any medical advice. But you should know that most of
my patients complaining of poor memory really don't have memory problems,
well, they technically do but only because their attention is really poor."

r - Mothers who stay in control cognitively are less likely to have controlling parenting attitudes

"The greater emotional control and problem-solving abilities a mother has, the
less likely her children will develop behavioral problems, such as throwing
tantrums or fighting. The study also found that mothers who stay in control
cognitively are less likely to have controlling parenting attitudes"

Study: Tetris is a great distraction for easing an anxious mind - Tetris players can achieve a state of blissful distraction known as "flow." People in such a state become completely absorbed and lose their sense of space and time, and as a result, experience less anxiety and stress.

r - Scientists have discovered that individuals who are particularly good
at learning patterns and sequences tend to struggle with tasks requiring
active thinking and decision-making

> I wonder if this ties into autism somehow. Autism is often associated with
greater pattern detection but poorer executive function, and is highly comorbid
with ADHD.

Y! - The 'plastic spoon' of microplastics in your brain could stem from these foods that are wrecking your health, researchers say

"For instance, they cite a 2024 umbrella review published in the British Medical
Journal which found that people who consumed ultra-processed foods had a
22% higher risk of depression, 48% higher risk of anxiety, and 41% higher risk
of poor sleep."

Y! - Fighting early-stage Alzheimer's with intensive lifestyle changes works, study finds

"The lifestyle intervention Ornish created -- which he calls 'eat well, move
more, stress less and love more' -- has been tested before. In 1990, Ornish
showed for the first time in a randomized clinical trial that coronary artery
disease could often be reversed with nothing more than diet, exercise, stress
reduction and social support."
