Undated
Category: Mind and Mood Dynamics
In this episode, Armand DiMele discusses the concept of neuroplasticity with Dr. Norman Doidge, author of ‘The Brain That Changes Itself.’ They explore how the brain can change its structure and function through learning and experience, challenging the long-held belief that the brain is fixed after early childhood. The conversation covers topics such as the implications of neuroplasticity for conditions like Alzheimer’s, the importance of mental and physical exercise, and how imagination can influence brain health. Listeners are encouraged to embrace learning and new experiences to enhance their cognitive abilities.
