Development of neuroplasticity Such a phenomenon can be compared to yoga, where we are frozen in unaccustomed, uncomfortable asanas all the time. In the same way,
the brain needs to be placed in new conditions: visiting new places, solving crossword puzzles, reading books, learning to dance and mastering unfamiliar sports.
You don't even have to devote loads of time to this. Even your daily routine can be woven into useful habits that force your brain to form new connections. Such as:
Sometimes change your route from work to home.
Instead of the common TV shows, switch to documentaries and educational videos.
At times watch TV without sound and try to lip-read what the characters are saying. This same exercise is great for developing empathy.
Eating with your left hand instead of your right one and vice versa.
Frequently the brain performs unfamiliar tasks, the more connections its cells will form,
the more plastic and adaptive it will become.
