🧠 Can the brain tire from too much information?

Nowadays, we get information all the time.

Messages, notifications, messages and short clips that flow in non-stop. 📱

Even the information is useful.

But when there is too much for the brain to process effectively, information overload or "brain overload" can occur.

The consequences may be to think less, to concentrate less, to make small decisions more difficult, to feel tired without much physical force.

Sometimes what the brain needs is not extra information, but rest time. 🌱

Try turning off unnecessary notifications. Put your phone on an intermittent basis.

Or go out for a short walk to get the brain to reset itself. 🤍

... Read moreในยุคดิจิทัลที่ข้อมูลไหลเข้ามาไม่หยุดหย่อนเช่นทุกวันนี้ ผมเองก็เคยประสบปัญหาสมองล้าหรือภาวะ Information Overload จนบางครั้งแทบจะไม่สามารถตั้งสมาธิทำงานหรือคิดเรื่องง่ายๆ ได้เหมือนเดิม สิ่งที่ผมพบว่าช่วยได้อย่างมากคือการตั้งเวลาปิดแจ้งเตือนบนมือถือในแต่ละวัน เช่น ช่วงเวลาทำงานหรือพักผ่อน ทำให้ไม่ถูกรบกวนด้วยข้อความหรือโซเชียลมีเดียที่เข้ามาเรื่อยๆ นอกจากนี้ การเดินเล่นกลางแจ้งในตอนเช้าหรือเย็นก็เป็นวิธีที่ดีในการรีเซตสมอง ให้มีเวลาพักและฟื้นฟูสมรรถภาพทางใจ โดยไม่ต้องเผชิญหน้ากับข้อมูลที่เข้ามามากจนเกินไป การแบ่งเวลาทำงานและพักผ่อนอย่างเหมาะสมยังช่วยเพิ่มสมาธิและประสิทธิภาพการตัดสินใจได้ดีขึ้นด้วย ที่สำคัญคือเราไม่จำเป็นต้องรับข้อมูลตลอดเวลาเพราะสมองมีขีดจำกัดในการประมวลผล การยอมรับว่าบางครั้งสิ่งที่สมองต้องการที่สุดคือเวลาพัก จะช่วยลดอาการเครียดและความเหนื่อยล้าทางจิตใจได้อย่างชัดเจน ดังนั้นลองใช้เทคนิค Social Detox เช่น ปิดแจ้งเตือนที่ไม่จำเป็น วางโทรศัพท์ช่วงหนึ่ง และหาเวลาทำกิจกรรมที่ช่วยผ่อนคลาย จะทำให้สมองของเราฟื้นฟูและพร้อมรับมือกับข้อมูลใหม่ได้ดีขึ้นอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ
