NEUROPLASTICITY

We can quite literally change our brain's biology!
So all this talk about the subconscious, neural pathways, cognition turns out not to be just a bunch of psychobabble. Scientists have discovered that our thoughts can actually change the physical structure of our brain. This phenomenon, neuroplasticity, is revolutionizing the way we think about the human mind.
As we go through life learning and experiencing new things, our brain is constantly arranging and re-arranging the neural pathways that control how we think and behave. The best part is, we direct our thoughts in a way that consciously modifies these pathways for ourselves. And the easiest way to shape the thoughts is through conscious, decisive self-talk. This kind of talk “cuts through” and takes control of your life.
Just like we build habits by repeating an action until it becomes “automatic”, we can use strong assertive language over time to create lasting change in our lives. It’s more than just happy thoughts though……..youre affecting your brains actually biology!
So we actually can determine our emotions by steering our thoughts. We can shape those thoughts by being conscious and diligent about the words and the kind of language we engage in. A lot of this will come down to your basic tolerance of your current mindset and your willingness to change it.
It all starts by making a conscious choice to talk in a way that is helpful rather than harmful. By using the right type of language and framing our problems in a more readily accessible light, we can quite literally change the way we see and interact with the world. All that stuff you heard about “creating your own reality”…….is not only possible but is being implemented by millions of people around the world.
Remember, no matter how difficult, challenging, pressing life’s circumstances can be, how you fundamentally relate to and engage with those circumstances will have the biggest say in how they turn out. Again, the answer is inside you rather than outside you!
