It was once thought that we are born with a set number of brain nerve cells that go stagnant. It was thought that the brain could not change after injury or if it had deficits. Neuroplasticity now disproves that belief and explains how we can change neural synaptic activity. Lessons can be learned to create new pathways which will enhance one's health. Studies have also proven how thoughts can change your brain. By changing your thought process you can decrease stress and improve your overall health. Incorporating happiness, humor and various positive coping strategies in your life can help make these positive neural changes.
View the animation below to see how pathways change through repetition. Listen to the Tedx video to see how one women's life was changed by neuroplasticity.
