Episode description

Have you noticed that you get distracted much more easily than you used to? 

You're not alone. Studies show that social media, smartphones and other digital devices have had an impact on our memory and how we store information. There's no doubt that we live in exciting times where we are more connected than ever and have a world of information at our fingertips, but the downside is that all of this information is that it is leading us to distraction. We find ourselves flitting from one app, screen or task to another as we follow a trail of alerts all vying for our attention. 

If this sounds familiar, then there are steps you can take to help free yourself from distraction and focus on tasks more efficiently. Dr Linda lays out 5 simple tips in this episode.
