How your brain FUNCTIONS is anchored by the maps of your previous experience (it’s is highly customized by experience as a child). You can rewire your brain at ANY age of life, below I will share a couple scientifically proven methods: 1. Persistence, intensity & subjective importance of acquiring the skill : In order to modify our brain, something has to be persistent enough (practice aka reps!), or intense enough (inversely related to the number of learning bouts required), or important enough (subjective but yes, we have to chemically register the importance of learning; even if that event is not by choice to force the circuitry into a new configuration). 2. Very focused deliberate effort: strain & agitation is an important part of learning! This is the brain queuing up systems in the brain stem - the effort process doesn’t feel good - BUT that agitation is you getting better! We can associate a sense of reward with this process & leverage it to our advantage. 3. Chunking: a way of dealing with or remembering info by separating it into small groups or chunks: By grouping each data point into a larger whole - or by breaking larger amounts of info into smaller units, you can improve the amount of information you can remember. We can start by: Identifying similarities or patterns; organizing the information; then grouping information into manageable units (e.g., phone numbers, social security numbers & DOB are all a list of numbers that are broken down into 3 separate parts!). Chunking can be used as an everyday memory enhancer, but researchers have also found that you can improve your ability to effectively chunk information (more practice = more efficiency). #MEDspiration MEDspired by: Dr. Eric Knudsen & Dr. Andrew Huberman ©08/28/2022 - #neuroscience #neuroplasticity #neurociencia #braincells #brainhealth #growthmindset #growthmindset🌱 #neuroplasticity #neuroplasticidade #medicalscience #science #sciencebitch #medschool #neurons #neuroscientist #brainscience #brainscience #scientistsofinstagram
