Why do you feel constantly on edge, restless, and unable to fully relax — even when nothing is wrong?
In this video, we explore how smartphones and modern notifications interact with ancient survival systems in the human brain. Long before screens existed, our nervous system evolved a rapid startle response to detect danger in uncertain environments. Today, that same system is being activated hundreds of times a day by pings, pop-ups, vibrations, and endless novelty.
Drawing from evolutionary psychology, neuroscience, and mismatch theory, this video explains how constant digital stimulation keeps the brain in a state of heightened vigilance — leaving you feeling wired, jumpy, mentally fatigued, and overstimulated. Your brain isn’t broken. It’s ancient.
BioModern explores how modern environments clash with human biology — and how understanding that mismatch can restore clarity, calm, and agency in everyday life.
