Powerful Brain Hack to ace exams #podcast #healthyparenting #examtips

I actually remember you teaching me the bubble exercise. Basically the way that the bubble works is that when you sit down preparing to take a test, you imagine a clear bubble around you, kind of like a force field. And within this bubble, only focus and calm are allowed. So all other distractions like noises or like, you know, people breathe heavily when they're taking a test or like papers are turning and you can get really stressed by people moving faster than you. All of those distractions bounce off the bubble. This activates your prefrontal cortex, which is the brain CEO, and it helps you to filter out and improve your executive function. This particular tool helps you to train your selective attention, and you're literally strengthening pathways in the brain by blocking out irrelevant noise.
