Our brains are not fixed entities, but rather, they are constantly adapting and evolving in response to the world around us. Every experience we have, whether big or small, leaves a lasting impact on our brain, shaping the way we think, feel, and behave. This concept of neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections, is at the core of our understanding of human behavior.
When we are exposed to new ideas, our brain cells, known as neurons, form new connections with one another, strengthening certain pathways and weakening others. This process, known as synaptic pruning, allows our brains to become more efficient at processing information, making it easier for us to learn and adapt to new situations.
In addition to forming new connections, our brains also have the remarkable ability to rewire existing pathways in response to ...
