Listen "NEUROPLASTICITY OR NEWROPLASTICITY? People Can & Do Change Through Experience "
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textPeople Can & Do Change Through ExperienceOne of the greatest myths many believe and often goes unchallenged is that "people don't change." If this were true, then there would be no need for personal development seminars, psychotherapy, life coaching, leadership development courses, or any other self-motivating or self-enhancing activity, via books, journals, audiotapes, and on-line courses. Since self-improvement is a multi-billion dollar industry, it stands to reason that this cliche is simply untrue and needs to be put to rest. While for some, this concept is valid, but as far as a general statement, we need to re-think this one as advancements in neuroscience (CONNECTOMES & CONNECTOMICS); specifically NEUROPLASTICITY indicate otherwise. What we know about the brain today versus 25 + years ago (while in my neuropsychology Ph.D. program) is truly extraordinary. Each and everyday there are wonderful discoveries about our amazing information processing center. What was for hundreds of years viewed as localization of function, we are now learning that the brain is simply too complex for such basic explanations. However, it was an excellent starting point and provided the impetus for the research and technology available to us today. In the human brain, billions of neurons form trillions of connections to each other — connections & calculations that, ironically, are far too staggering for the human brain to understand. rogersresearchglobal.com
