please spam this video every-fucking-where for the love of all good things. especially on social media sites that aren’t on the fediverse.
there’s no composing these notes to be presentable. sensationalist title i know, but it’s literally on a form of brainwashing: echo chambers reinforce and worsens held beliefs wholly restricting critical thinking. echo chambers radicalize, remember? here that’s the topic disseminated about. i just have a video to share on why the world stinks and jotted notes on what each person can do to help their BDNF to rise.
BDNF is cognitive flexibility in short.
• schedule your screentime. scheduling is the sustainable alternative to quitting cold turkey. easier to make lasting effects.
• only watch a screen while standing, as a rule of thumb. seating should mean shutting of screen. while eating, shitting, masturbating & near sleep screentime has more severe & addictive effects.
• no longer than 2h screentime a day to deter neurogenesis - literal brainrot.
• on your phone: turn off notifications for as much as possible, turn on greyscale, use a homescreen launcher that doesn’t have icons. make that screen boring this way.
• intensive training twice a week
• dancing and aerobic excercise
• sauna (20 min, 3-4 times a week)
• meditation (20 min, any day of the week, body scan being the least risky meditation)
• listening to live acoustic & vocal performances (in my experience great to go to once a month atleast)
• journaling (including Journaling RPG) (effect up to six weeks later, 20-60 min daily, atmost once a day atleast once a week.)
• furthermore: practicing an instrument, meeting people for physical games like cardgames boardgames dicegames pen&paper-roleplaying (including SoloRPG), sitting audience to an acoustic & vocal performance
as for diet • macrobiotic: prebiotics (like Inulin), probiotics (especially Lactobacillus plantarum & Bifodorum strains)
• serotonic: tryptophane (in legumes nuts seeds ‘spannmål’ dairy)
