Selective summary: @1:00 What is brain plasticity: the PROCESS by which your brain changes. That is, the formation of new MEMORIES, and LEARNING a new skill. Also, processes of recovery from damaging events. And processes for adapting to changes in the environment. @2:10 contiguity: neurons that fire together, wire together. @2:26 MEMORY: "the ability to reconstuct the whole from a degraded fragment". The fragment can be a smell or a bit of music etc. which reconstructs (evokes?) a whole field of memories. This is because of the contiguity between the stimulus and those larger memories. So... why is this important? @8:30 becuase this explains the fundamental of how memory works. So this can be useful for therapy.. for learning new skills.. etc. @11:24 tips for sleeping well > don't lie in bed awake if you can't sleep! Go and of the room and do a quiet activity.

[@robbierai2095]

The exercise /hippocampus connection is not necessarily about working out, it's about being present and focusing on the muscle group we isolate. Neural activity is activated as a result of being present, opposed to thinking about the past or future. The latter pattern of thought generates little learning, rather recall and speculation. Contrastly, when a person is consciously present, the eyes, ears, skin, etc are providing new input for processing in the brain. Back to the exercise example, personally if I was doing shrugs, my internal voice would count the reps, each rep is complete following a slight pause so that my traps are under stress. I focus on the sensation and have inhaled air in my lungs as I hold. Upon release, I exhale, and focus on a couple of deep breaths before moving on to the next rep. I am completely present, necessary for peak performance of my brain so I am able to complete the momentary stress. Thus resulting in hippocampus firing.

I have been studying the brain for the last 50 years; not as a scientist but with deep curiosity and passionate interest. I have followed the incredible Scientific discoveries and the amazing imaging machine’s. The jumps we have made in this science in the last decade and in particular, the last 5 years, are profound. We now can literally see how how neurons that fire together are wired together. Where I was, totally disappointed, in this lecture, is the mention of drugs and chemically changing this through us tinkering with out brain chemistry. I can tell you from personal experience and and the lost years of my own productivity, because I believed doctors and I allowed them to tinker with my brains chemistry. If the lecture above but focused on meditation, deep breathing, pausing, focusing on one task at a time; being extremely careful about what we expose ourselves to, what we read, who’s in our life;. These are the things that change your brain not the sledgehammer of a crude drug!!

[@camerontaylor7471]

Peaceful Benevolent Tree the only thing your going to see is more of the same... more narcotics to hypnotize the masses, mixing different cultures and belief systems and religions from the past to modify behaviors. And of course using nano technologies like pharmaceuticals and microwaves and radio waves sound waves etc to modify emotional responses, moods, at a remote distance... (like those metal detectors) so every internal modification can be done noninvasive...

[@bhavnabansal9802]

Amazing. Please throw some light on what you discovered through your research around how to take care of behavioral issues through brain rehabilitation. As in, What exactly do we have to do to keep our mental health and be calm and be very productive. I am also trying to carve my way to give the best output possible in my work.

I now realised why people say that when we are studying we should apply some perfume and the same perfume should be used when we have to recall what we studied.

12:46-12:58 Physical exercise is important for the brain.

[@Rundra]

you hear that a lot but then it makes me wonder how does Stephen Hawking stay a genius without proper oxygen and a limited diet

[@yongbangyang]

Stephen Hawking's brain performance is probably declining. And maybe he has a good genetic for the brain(Born genius), but unfortunately not his body. I still believe that physical exercise will give a boost to your brain's performance. But you can't rely only on physical exercise, you still need to be willing to learn. Perhaps Stephen Hawking will be even smarter if he doesn't have ALS. This is what I found from the internet. *Physical exercise boosts the brain’s rate of neurogenesis throughout life, while mental exercise increases the rate at which those new brain cells survive and make functional connections into existing neural networks.* The key is to exercise + learning.

[@Rundra]

Yong bang yang Oh, I never doubted that exercise boosts brain performance! Exercise helps your blood circulate thus allowing your brain to get more oxygen, which it will otherwise be deprived of if you lead a sedentary life, which evolution never intended for us, if one could put it that way. I just find it miraculous that Stephen Hawking managed to keep his smarts for so long despite being so impaired by his condition. Yeah, he's probably declining but it makes one wonder just how much better he'd perform if he was capable of doing exercise and eating properly too.

[@yongbangyang]

Neurostimulation can also be accomplished with a combination of meditation and self hypnosis i.e. Reiki or Silva method as well as with chemicals or electricity. People can learn to do this for themselves and wouldn't have to spend $ on medical interventions. Much more disease is chronic than acute. Chronic conditions come from deprivations i.e. malnutrition, lack of acceptance and safety, etc. Could neurostimulation grow loving kindness connections? And, would those pathways have to overwhelm the fear pathways to heal someone of the neurological source of their chronic diseases?

the point is not brain is plastic or flexible the point is environment. Our brain are shaped by environment which is every thing around you. What we do is that we should manipulate our environment which is parenting, schooling, friends, information we eat daily, language, spouse etc. etc. Of course I know our brain is plastic by merely knowing that won't change anything.

Realize there is only one Lord of Creation that is unconditional love and service to Creation. It isn't service to self, it isn't service to others at the expense of the self, it isn't service to self at the expense of others. It isn't service to Earth at the expense of the people. It isn't service to the people at the expense of the Earth. It's unconditional love for all. If you can't love yourself then you can't love anything else. The only way you can love yourself is to discover your true power. Know that all the answers are in there, all you have to do is believe in yourself. You don't need justification from your peers .. it's all in your heart. Just step into your heart and you'll change the world in a day.

Doesn't have to be chemicals only. Cognitive stimulation works pretty well and fires neuroplasticity. Those games you play like Sudoku, Crosswords, etc ehnance your brain. There are also games designed for enhancing cognitive functions. Like Lumosity, Memorado, Brain Training, etc. All these things are Cognitive Stimulation. Actually, neuroplasticity explains why we learn everything. Practicing a new skill and getting better on it is explanied by plasticity. So, it's not just from chemicals only. There are other many ways of enhance your brain by neuroplasticity.

[@thatsinpossible4967]

+Todd_Michael_ Schultz Neuro-plasticity is (essentially) INFINITE. IT is not a brain function (although there are manifestations of it there)..but really a function of your AWARENESS/MIND.. which you can grow and grow and grow. Your mind extends everywhere (from horizon-to-horizon).. and resides within and beyond your physical body. YOU are a slice of your own consciousness having a limitation-centered Earth experience that utilizes a physical brain to generate a virtual reality-like experience (for your eternal soul) that includes illusory time and space. I really hate making this about me, just know if you can make your way to my G+ profile.. you will find a NEW_ADVANCED_HUMAN of the "Age of Aquarius". 96% of the kids born post-2000 have this potential and a decent percentage born before 2k do.

Eating someone else's dead, decaying flesh would not necessarily give you the long term health you need. Horses are way much more powerful than us yet eat only grass, grains and seeds. They don't have to kill us to get their proteins. Broccoli, soy, beans have more protein than meat. And is without the cholesterol and other unwanted stuff such as growth hormones and antibiotics. As far as "a drop in testosterone by turning vegan" it sounds to me absurd.
