Dr. Kalina Christoff is a psychology professor at UBC. Her work focuses on understanding human thought, using a combination of functional neuroimaging (fMRI), behavioural testing, and theoretical work. 

Constant connectivity and endless schedules often fill our lives these days. But what price are we paying for our fixation on screens and busyness? In the cover story of the latest issue of The University of British Columbia Magazine, UBC psychology professor Dr. Kalina Christoff illuminates the value of taking time out to simply allow our minds to wander.

Watch this webinar to learn how unplugging from everything outside of us and turning our attention inwards can build healthier brains and benefit our overall wellbeing.
