Hello my helpful tribe!
Here are 3 simple methods you can use to enhance neuroplasticity so you can build habits easier, supercharge your memory retention and grow in the direction of your choosing.
-
BE ALERT.
Norepinephrine is a key neuromodulator when it comes to facilitating neuroplasticity. It’s also dopamine’s sibling. An easy way to enhance alertness is through a quick breathwork cycle. 30 deep breathes, followed by an extended breath hold upon exhalation and an extended breathhold upon inhalation - AKA the Wim Hof method.
-
GET FOCUSED.
Mental focus follows visual focus, and your eyes are tools for unlocking your attention. To increase your level of focus on the task at hand, stare at a single point such as a wall, screen or object for 30-60 seconds. This helps activate the neural circuits involving acetylcholine, a key neuromodulator in the learning process.

NSDR Protocols
After a learning session, whether it be the conventional learning of skills and knowledge, or even deliberate subconscious reprogramming, do an NSDR (non-sleep deep rest) protocol. An NSDR protocol such as self-hypnosis or Yoga Nidra puts your brain into a state of receptivity in which the content you just learned will more easily be translated into new neural pathways. Yay!
