Prolonged sitting can lead to decreased concentration and cognitive function, with recent studies highlighting the connection between movement and brain power. As human evolution progressed, our brain complexity increased in response to movement challenges. The cerebellum, traditionally linked to motor skills, is now known to influence higher cognitive functions like decision-making and memory. Emphasizing 'embodied cognition', the article advocates for regular movement breaks to improve focus and combat the risks associated with a sedentary lifestyle.
Sitting too much can lead to lack of focus, blunted brain power, and frustration.
Studies indicate that as we evolved, it was movement that caused our brains to step up to the challenges presented and grow larger and more complex.
