How many 'highways' are in your brain? Evelyn explores the concept of neuroplasticity or brain plasticity through an analogy of creating new neural-highways in our brains.Neuroplasticity is 'the brain's ability to reorganise itself by forming new neural connections throughout life.' Or very simply put, 'the ability to retrain your brain.'Our brain has an incredible ability to continue to form new neural pathways and rewire itself to learn new activities, skills or languages until old age. However, like anything, the more often we train our brain, the better it becomes at picking up new skills!We challenge our listeners to commit to 1 small task every day that increases the plasticity of your brain.Try some of these:Brush your teeth with your non-dominant handLearn an instrumentLearn a new languageTake an online courseAttend an art classRead dailyDance!Don't forget to follow us on our socials:Website: https://withevelynandemily.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/withevelynandemily/Instagram: @withev
