Mental Fitness in an AI World: Neuroplasticity, Dopamine & Focus | Anne-Sophie Fluri
The Health ReviewShow Notes
If you feel like your attention is getting worse — and your brain is constantly “on” — you’re not imagining it. In this episode of The Health Review, neuroscientist Anne-Sophie Fluri (founder of Brainwave) explains how AI and constant digital stimulation are reshaping our brains, and what we can do to protect focus, motivation and mental resilience.
We break down what mental fitness actually means and how neuroplasticity works in adults, and the real role of dopamine in attention, drive and phone habits. We also explore whether a “dopamine diet” is useful and the simple, science-backed habits that help you rewire your brain for clarity in a distracted world.
In this episode, we cover:
How AI is changing attention, learning and critical thinking
What “mental fitness” is (and how to train it)
Neuroplasticity as an adult: how change really happens
Dopamine and phone addiction: what’s going on under the hood
Do we need a dopamine diet — and what does that even mean?
Practical tools to build resilience, focus and cognitive strength
