The Caffeine Sweet Spot: Finding the Balance for Better Brainpower According to Science

Is a cup of coffee part of your morning routine, followed up with another cup or two later in the day? 

Like the 73% of Americans who drink coffee daily, you might depend on that jolt of caffeine to jumpstart your brain at the beginning of the day, after lunch, or if you need to work extra hours into the night. It’s long been accepted that the stimulant effect helps us with alertness and clearer thinking so three to five cups a day has become a habit for many. 

But is it possible that coffee, or whatever other caffeinated drink, makes us feel alert, but doesn’t really make our brain work better? This study tested the impact of continuous caffeine intake, similar to the regular coffee habit of the average American, on how well we focus and process information.

The experiment took 20 healthy young men who were regular caffeine consumers and tested their performance on simple and more complex memory tasks after 10 days of daily caffeine dosing, 10 days on placebo (no caffeine), and a day after stopping 9 days of caffeine intake (withdrawal). The results may surprise you!

How “Vacation Mode” Unlocks Your Prioritization Ninja (Hint: it’s not about self-care)

I have to admit that I don’t remember where I read the actual term “vacation mode” for the first time but suffice it to say I did not invent it. We could even call it the “vacation phenomenon”. I know most think of “vacation mode” as that feeling of being on vacation and that’s not what I mean here…but whatever you want to call it, I am capitalizing on it now and it also just came up in a discussion in virtual coworking in the inner circle. PLUS, the great news is you don’t need a postponed wedding to use this trick…So let’s get to it. 💪
