Listen "Improve your mental wellbeing with Neuroplasticity"
Episode Synopsis
"Neurons that fire together, wire together" - Donald Hebb
The brain is 'plastic,' meaning that it is continuously changing, reshaping and adapting its neural pathways in response to new situations and events. We can use this concept to feel better by consciously choosing a more positive thought when we are aware that we are thinking negatively. Even if it doesn't feel right or if we don't believe what we're thinking, we are contributing to creating a new and more positive automatic reaction by strengthening the firing of that particular neural pathway.
Remember: feeling better is possible and it is 100% within your control.
