Did you know that just three months of consistent exercise can boost your brain function?
Exercise neuroscientist Wendy Suzuki explains how working out can strengthen your cognitive abilities.
According to Suzuki, even just ten minutes of walking can alleviate anxiety and depression because of the neurochemicals released during exercise. She shares a study that indicated people who were previously sedentary experienced notable improvements in their baseline mood, prefrontal function, and hippocampal function with only 2-3 exercise sessions per week. If you’re already exercising, don’t worry — you’re still able to reap these benefits!
Suzuki believes increasing the intensity of your preexisting workouts only further boosts the benefits for your brain. Just don’t go overboard, she says, because that can hurt you more than help you.

As revenge-travel booms post-pandemic, a slew of low cost airlines like Norse Atlantic Airways, French Bee, and Play have begun advertising cheap transatlantic flights. Their tactics for getting prices down go far further than simply ‘unbundling ancillaries’ – charging separately for everything other than the plane seat – yet still their prices aren’t that much cheaper than legacy carriers like United and Delta. With the summer travel season coming to an end, and international demand set to drop, WSJ’s George Downs visits Norse to find out whether the company’s low fare, low-margin approach will withstand the winter.

Antifragility is the idea of putting pressure on a system, or human, the system or human actually grows bigger and stronger. Antifragile systems are all around us. One example of this is our muscular system. We go to the gym to lift weights. By doing so we are putting pressure on our system to help it grow stronger. The human body is an antifragile system. From a psychological perspective, antifragility comes in the form of PTG, or post-traumatic growth. After we experience a stressful event, we learn and grow to become more resilient.

Unprecedented heavy rains (a consequence of extreme weather caused by climate change) can take inches off of topsoil in minutes, destroying a farmer’s harvest, threatening their livelihood and impacting the quality of their soil for generations to come.

Unilever is tackling this complex challenge head-on by partnering with Practical Farmers of Iowa to protect and improve soil through regenerative farming practices. But can they convince often risk-averse farmers across the state and beyond?

Powerful branding can not only change how you feel about a company, it can actually change how your brain is wired. « We love to think of ourselves as rational. That’s not how it works, » says UPenn professor Americus Reed II about our habits (both conscious and subconscious) of paying more for items based primarily on the brand name. Effective marketing causes the consumer to link brands like Apple and Nike with their own identity, and that strong attachment goes deeper than receipts. Using MRI, professor and neuroscientist Michael Platt and his team were able to see this at play. When reacting to good or bad news about the brand, Samsung users didn’t have positive or negative brain responses, yet they did have « reverse empathy » for bad news about Apple. Meanwhile, Apple users showed a « brain empathy response for Apple that was exactly what you’d see in the way you would respond to somebody in your family. »
