Scientists are now saying walking through a door “resets” your mind to whatever it is you normally do in that room. For instance, say you keep the shopping list on the fridge. If you notice you are low on toothpaste, when you go into the kitchen to write it down, your brain stops thinking “toothpaste” and reverts to “cooking”.
