The next time you need to get some serious thinking done - head for a coffee shop.
It’s not the caffeine that will boost your brain power, it’s the noise. Researchers have determined that the din of chatter, grinding and gurgling registers at about 70 decibels in a coffee shop and that’s a sweet spot for our brains. Background noise at 50 decibels or below is a bit too quiet, while trying to think in a noisier environment can be distracting.
Just be sure you find the right seat for your cup of creative thinking. You don’t want to be too close to the frappuccino blender, as that registers at a distracting 85 decibels.
