10 Facts Of The Brain From Leading Neuroscientists
Neurons are the key players in the brain. Neurons are information messengers. They use electrical impulses and chemical signals to transmit information between different areas of the brain, and between the brain and the rest of the nervous system. Excitement keeps your brain cells alive, ultimately, one of the main factors in keeping our brains alive.
10 Facts of The Brain from leading neuroscientists
1. Even when we don’t have free will, our brains make-up stories implying that we do. This shows that if you do not take accountability for your thoughts, your imagination will fill in the missing “thoughts” leading to more FEAR. That's why here at Mogressive we instill conscious-imagination.
2. Neuroscientists can read a rat’s imagination. For the first time ever, neuroscientists have recorded a rat’s dream. The final stages of owning your “thought-privacy”. This will eventually lead to uploading thoughts, fears, new/old memorial experiences, or maybe you want to learn how to cook. Ask and you shall receive. Yup, just like the Matrix, Neo uploading Mixed Fighting skills at a split second.
3. Elephants have evolved huge brain regions to control their trunks. Elephant trunks are super complex and have many different muscles in them, it's so complex they need a large brain, bigger than an humans to account for all the neurons and cells to control the sophisticated trunk. Food for thought. Everything in your brain is “in control” in some way shape or form. So if you feel like you’re not in control of your life right now. Just ask, what would an elephant do if he/she couldn’t control their own trunks.
5. Zebrafish can regenerate their spinal cord. Second Believe it or not! Most amphibians and fish can regenerate their spinal cord if you cut their spinal cord and leave it alone for a week. It’ll grow back and swim, hop, skip away like nothing happened.
6. Most of your neurons live with you all your life. The neurons you're born with are mostly the neurons you have when you die, so these cells live with you your entire life. Keeping your neurons strong and healthy requires regular exercise, like running, swimming, hiking.
8. The brain needs to forget in order to function properly. It's very difficult to remember everything we see, hear, touch, and smell in one day. Which is why we need to take ownership of what we invest our focus and attention on. Hopefully after reading this, you’ll understand that we are allotted or only given a certain amount of mental/physical energy in one given day. You need to start saying yes, or no, to people places and things. Is it worth my time and energy?
9. A split-brain may result in split consciousness. “There was an experiment in the '60s on the phenomenon called ‘split brain’, which is a result of the corpus callosum that connects the two hemispheres (right/left side of the brain) being severed or disconnected. In this condition, there are two separate cognitions in the same individual. Twice the thoughts within one person.
10. Hemi-neglect in stroke patients affects memory too. Patients who have a stroke, or for some reason suffer damage to their parietal lobe, will experience this weird phenomenon called hemineglect, where they don’t pay attention to the left half of their visual field. For example, maybe they won’t shave one half of their face. If you ask them to draw a flower, they’ll only draw the petals on one side. They'll only eat the food off one half of the plate.
In addition to building fitness, regular endurance exercises like running, swimming, or biking can preserve existing brain cells. They can also encourage new brain cell growth. Not only is exercise good for your body, it can also help improve memory, increase focus, and sharpen your mind.
