History of No Brainer Day
The unanimous champion of holiday creation is Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith, a Chicago woman who rules herself as America’s Premier Eventologist. She has created over a thousand holidays and No Brainer Day is one. This day encourages people to stop overthinking things, criticizing themselves, and loosen up and unwind. Things are simple, and the multiple problems we face daily may have easy solutions if we stop stressing and take things easy. As it implies, ‘no-brainer’ means making choices that require very little thinking or work.
The celebration of this day began in 1995, and by the 2000s, it had become popular and more observed. The opinion that a complication or problem is a ‘no-brainer’ may be a means to shut down a feud. And because some of our daily tasks might need an unavoidable whole lot of thinking, at least on this day give some rest to your brain. Excessive brain activity is linked to a shorter life span. According to a recent study on the postmortem brain tissue of people who lived long, the key to a long life could be a brain with less neural activity.
The best thing about “no brainer” solutions is how quickly the most complex problems can be solved with little a patience and perseverance. If you are someone who comes up with ‘no brainer’ solutions quite often, it might be an indicator of you having really impressive analytical and problem-solving skills! Treat No Brainer Day as a day to give your brain some rest and pick the most obvious solutions for all your problems that pop up through the course of the day.
The brain is responsible for our problem-solving skills. The striatum of the brain plays a crucial role in deciding among options. The striatum is further divided into three sections, where each part gets activated during a specific portion of our decision-making process. The prefrontal cortex near the front of the brain helps us solve complex problems and remains activated even while we are not consciously thinking about our problem. The anterior cingulate cortex on the other hand tries to find potential solutions and finds out whether they can be successful. This intricate working of the brain sure needs some rest. So, give it a break with celebrations of this holiday!
