Mental Fatigue Often Comes From Constant Context Switching

One thing meditation and slower routines are making very obvious:

The brain rarely gets uninterrupted attention anymore.

Most days involve nonstop switching between:

  • tabs
  • notifications
  • conversations
  • apps
  • tasks
  • thoughts

That constant context switching creates more mental fatigue than I realized.

Which is probably why quieter practices like yoga, meditation, stretching, and even walking without stimulation start feeling surprisingly restorative over time.
