Your Productivity and Wellness App
The Times of India, in association with CENABH (Centre of Excellence in Neurodegeneration and Brain Health), brings you a simple, research-backed assessment to help you understand your gadget and social media usage. Adapted from Mentacy, a neuroscience-based mental wellness platform developed by experts at CENABH, this assessment offers science-led insights. Think of this as a starting point for awareness—a moment to pause, assess, and make informed choices about your digital life. This is an awareness tool, not a medical diagnosis.
