The #1 Science-Based Way To Improve Focus Starting Today | Anders Hansen

Struggling to focus in a tech-filled world?

Here, I’m discussing why our brains evolved to be easily distracted and how simple habits can protect attention. This clip explores exercise-driven brain benefits: about 20% higher blood flow, sharper focus and creativity for roughly an hour after, and better memory for study. We also cover the long-term mental health gains from three pulse-raising sessions a week of around 45 minutes, why daily movement still matters, and practical tips like keeping your phone out of the room and building movement into your day with walking, cycling, or stairs.
