Neuroplasticity Is the Most Underrated Feature of Your Nervous System
4 ideas to rewire your brain and leverage neuroplasticity to your advantage.
All of us are born with a nervous system that isn’t just capable of change but is designed to change.
That is the essence of the incredible breakthrough of neuroplasticity:
Your brain is not fixed.
Instead, it changes in response to your experiences, thoughts, and actions.
This allows you to think differently.
Learn new skills.
Forget painful experiences.
And adapt to practically anything life throws at you.
For a long time, it was assumed that only the young brain is plastic. (Something about an old dog and new tricks?)
But scientific research is now undeniable:
No matter how old you are, you can rewire your brain so new motor, cognitive and emotional skills are burned into the neural circuitry.
The most widely accepted conclusion of current research in neuroscience is that of neuroplasticity: Our brains grow, change and adapt at all times…
