'A tonic for the frazzled mind' DAVID ROBSON
'This excellent book is precisely what we need to stop, reset, and rest' JOHANN HARI
'Offers practical, science-backed solutions for reclaiming your life' NIR EYAL

Blending science and personal stories with practical tips, neuroscientist Dr Joseph Jebelli reveals how new research is solving the mystery of the brain at rest, with profound implications for intelligence, creativity and even life expectancy.

We are constantly told to make the most of our time: to stop procrastinating, to 'optimise' and be efficient with every precious hour.

But when we let our brains rest, and our minds wander, something magical happens: the brain's 'default network' switches on, and we are able to think in completely new ways.

Drawing on groundbreaking new research, Dr. Jebelli reveals how napping can enhance brain size, spending time in nature can boost creativity and problem-solving skills, and how silence fosters the growth of new brain cells. Authoritative and inspiring, The Brain at Rest offers practical advice for achieving a happier, healthier, and more balanced life.
