> "Since the pandemic hit, we’ve been using more digital tools to work longer hours, creating a cognitive load that’s tough on our brains. How do we fix that?"

Stick to normal working hours instead of futilely trying to impress people with "eyes on screen" overtime.

Put down the phone, turn off the laptop and the TV, go for a walk outside or read a book.

Be content with the fact that the world doesn't end just because you haven't checked your Facebook notifications for half an hour.
