If Addison make a light bulb today, he posts that 10,000 mistake on Tik Tok. When your experiments becomes a fi ...

Neuroplasticity & Learning - Brain plasticity allows for learning and unlearning at any age, overcoming traumas is also possible [1] - After approximately age 25, significant neurochemical shifts are required for brain change [2] - Traumatic events are remembered due to neuromodulators like epinephrine (adrenaline) causing a state shift [2] - Therapy can reduce the emotional impact of traumatic memories [4] - Alertness and focus are key for neuroplasticity in adults, passive learning is ineffective [4] Neurochemical Processes - Attention triggers the release of catecholamines (dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine), increasing alertness and focus [5] - Increased alertness and focus lead to a tightening of visual and auditory fields [6] - Adequate sleep after focused attention consolidates new knowledge through neural connection reordering [6]
