До вас теж іноді приходили найгеніальніші думки саме в той момент, коли ви складали білизну, мили посуд чи просто били байдики? Це тому, що коли тіло рухається на автопілоті, ваш мозок займається тим, що створює нові нейронні зв’язки, які пов’язують ідеї і вирішують проблеми. Ви полюбите нудьгувати, вислухавши Мануша Зомороді, котрий пояснює зв'язок між мрійливістю і креативністю.
