The average adolescent spends 7.5 hours per day on a device, and it’s impacting brain function.

​​Staring at a screen is hyper-stimulating to parts of the brain that control visual processing and stress. And​​, parts of the brain that control decision-making, learning, memory, coordination, balance, and movement are under-stimulated.
