📓 “The truth is that you have battery chargers everywhere, and I’m here to help you find them.”
The Power of Downstate is my first nonfiction read in a while. I loved reading this so much. Sara Mednick has an accessible way of teaching the wonders of the brain.
Thanks to a trip to my new library, I found it sitting on the shelf.
The book is in sections to explain how to tap into restorative energy. The first part is about getting the right ratio. This was fascinating. It explained the balance needed to restore energy to the body. I loved learning about how the body syncs up to the brain.
🤍“What I’ve discovered is that the Downstate doesn’t just happen at the neural level in the ups and downs of slow-wave sleep. The truth is, there is a whole lotta Downstate everywhere you look, especially when awake.”
