Episode description
It is near impossible to make rational decisions when we are stressed out. This is because stress is processed by the emotional part of the brain and it shuts down the prefrontal cortex. It is in this part of the brain that we pause and take in information and think about it and decide what to do with all the information. There is a simple test to see how well your prefrontal cortex is faring. In this episode, we give you the opportunity to feel your prefrontal cortex. Enjoy and smile.
