"Protecting Your Brain: Avoid These 5 Damaging Habits"

Neuroscience consultant Emily McDonald shares three things she avoids to protect her brain health: watching negative TV shows or movies, listening to music with emotions she doesn't want to align with, and being judgmental of herself or others.

Maintaining positive media consumption, mindful music choices, and fostering self-compassion and positive connections are emphasized for brain health and overall well-being.
