Scans Reveal You Can Teach An Old Dog New Tricks

Research has shown that you can now lie back, put your feet up and just imagine yourself getting better at some aspect of your life and you brain will do the rest, interested? Lets learn more.

Scientists took a group of  people and had them practice a simple song on a piano which involved just five fingers with a metronone for two hours a day for five days. Following this the scientists scanned the brain to see what changes had occurred in the participants brains and recorded where there was new growth in the brain. The machine that they used was a transcranial-magnetic-stimulation scanner which mapped how much of the motor cortex controlled the finger movements  for finger playing on a piano.
However they did more: Next they had a another group of people do the same thing, but this time they didn't play a single note, they just imagined it. Then they scanned the brain of these people using the transcranial-magnetic-simulation scanner.. What was discovered was that the people who merely imagined the practicing of the music had the ability to change the structure of their brain even more. So what does this mean? well just mentally practicing a golf swing or a forward pass or a swimming turn could lead to mastery with less physical practice.

So, then now we have it! using hypnosis to improve your chosen sport or learning a life skill such as a foreign language or playing an actual instrument has now been proven to change your structure of your mind and strengthen the neuro-wiring that helps you improve your chosen skill more than just physical practice. This is known as neuroplasticity.

So heres to putting your feet up on the couch and simply letting go, relaxing and just waking up to a greater sense of well being
