We see - and feel - it all the time: memories declining, an epidemic of sleep deprivation, overwhelming numbers of people experiencing stress and stunted creativity. While it’s all very well and good to simply try and “sleep more” or put your phone away, our fast-paced way of living and consuming information is no longer compatible, and as a result, we’re suffering.
In this masterclass, eminent brain surgeon and neuroscientist Dr Rahul Jandial - a graduate of University of Berkeley - gives you the tools to take your brain to boot camp. With him, you will learn how to boost your memory, unleash your creativity, tackle stress, master emotions, and even raise smarter children and maintain your own brain health for years to come.
Through a combination of brain hacks, case studies and stories from his own surgery table, you will learn the practical takeaways for optimising your brain function, ultimately leading to a healthier, happier and more productive life.
