How the concept has evolved from simply being able to read to making informed decisions. Treatment adherence: We demystify this concept and explain the importance of healthcare professionals using simple language. The danger of the infodemic: How information overload on social media and tools like ChatGPT can paralyze us when seeking help. Self-regulation tools: The power of silence, conscious breathing, and journaling (writing down your feelings) to activate neuroplasticity and transform your brain.
