Episode Summary

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, stressed with your languages? Taking a break may well be the answer. In this episode, I debunk the myth that pausing means failure and explains how breaks help the brain process and retain new information. We’ll dig into a bit of research including the concept of desirable difficulty, showing how forgetting a little during breaks can enhance memory and learning. Yes, really.
