What is Neuroplasticity?
Neuroplasticity allows the brain to change and grow new connections. Here's how it works:
When you begin to do something new
Your brain doesn’t know just what to do
Till one lonely neuron says to another
Hello over there, you are my brother!
Let’s form a team to get the job done
Working together is much more fun
That’s the magic of neuroplasticity
Neurons making new friends to set you free.
- The brain can change and grow new connections at all ages.
- New synaptic connections between neurons enable growth and learning.
- The average adult has 500 trillion connections, with room for 500 trillion more.
- Growing new connections is associated with brain fitness.
- The loss of neuroplasticity is associated with Alzheimer’s Disease and other degenerative brain conditions.
- Neuroplasticity allows a healthy brain to grow and improve with age.
- Neuroplasticity keeps life fun and exciting and helps you get better with age!
