6 Non Fiction Books To Rewire Your Brain in 2026

Описание: We spend so much time planning our knitting projects, but what about the brain that powers our creativity? 🧠🧶

This video is a little different. It’s an episode dedicated to "Brain Care." For 2026, I’ve curated a reading list of 6 non-fiction books designed to help me reclaim my focus, understand my wiring, and build a healthier relationship with the digital world.
