| HOW ADULTS CHANGE! |
|
"Talking" changes the brain! Humans use words to make connections in the brain. Sensory input and behavior remodel the neurons. Therefore, through learning, new synapses and neurons grow and expand. As an adult, the best prevention for old age and senility, is the active use of the brain! The brain is dynamic, and the life we lead leaves a record in the pathways of the brain. Using the transforming power of the mind to reshape the brain is our opportunity and responsibility. What has already happened has been recorded, what you choose to think will shape your future! |

The
brain is not a computer! It is many neural processors that function indepently
of each other. Since each system has a separate job, we can do several
things simultaneously or in "parallel". The flexibility
or "plasticity"
is really what allows change! Change the neurons in one area, and
like dominoes in a line, neurons in other areas change. This
is why when we eat a strange food with good friends, it may become our
favorite. If we fail to plan then we plan to fail! Good therapy
has a plan and enables you to make the changes you want! |
Action precedes Motivation! |
