NEURAL WIRING

The key to changing just about anything in our lives is to optimize our neural wiring - weaken and destroy the old neural pathways, then create and reinforce new ones!

Yes, our brains are malleable, they can be manipulated, capable of being molded to serve our highest potential! WE NEED TO CONFRONT OUR NERUONS...EN GUARDE!

 

Everything that is happening to our bodies, in our lives, and around us is largely a result of the hard wired patterns happening inside our 3 pounds of brain matter. Most limits, challenges, and destructive thinking, are the product of how our network of neurons have developed and BEEN CONDITIONED. We watched as Mom jumped on a chair screaming when she saw a spider - as a kid we mimicked all of Mom's fear, our brain got wired, conditioned subconsciously to do the same, and we became stuck in that pattern - see spider, scream and jump! We have been wired to be the way we are by outdated beliefs, and realities. Our reality is that we have a massive amount of technology and resources - we must get busy controlling our health and our planet's health. Most things in our lives started way back in time - our parents adopted a certain belief from their parents, and they from their parents and son, and we unconsciously, or even consciously, behave and exist the way we do. 

Before we try to make changes to any of the other factors listed in the introduction (sunshine, movement, sleep, and nutrition) it's best to make sure that we are not limited by our subconscious mind, by our 'old' neural wiring. If we are limiting ourselves from reaching our highest potential we need to change the wiring.

For example:

  • Not healthy – change the wiring!

  • Not happy – change the wiring!

  • Cannot reduce or eliminate acute or chronic pain – change the wiring!

  • Cannot reduce or eliminate anxiety – change the wiring!

  • Don't have great relationships – definitely change the wiring!

  • Not operating at our highest level in our specific sport – change the wiring!

  • Not feeling, doing, or being our best at just about anything – change the wiring!

The good news - WE CAN CHANGE OUR WIRING! We can wither away old neural pathways that are not helping us! And then replace them with new pathways that do help us!

 

Personality - the driving force OF YOUR LIFE, which is a combination of your beliefs, emotions, and behaviors, that dictates how you react to self, others, and the world. 

YOUR PERSONALITY CAN MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD OR BAD. FOR EXAMPLE IF SOMEONE SAYS SOMETHING OFFENSIVE TO YOU, AND YOU USE THAT PERSON'S WORDS TO DICTATE HOW YOU FEEL, YOU GIVE YOUR POWER TO THEM.  

GOOD NEWS - YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR BELIEFS, EMOTIONS, AND BEHAVIORS.

The old science use to say that once we mature, once our neurons had wired themselves together, that's it - we were stuck with it for life. The old model said that our personalty, old neural circuitry was hard wired and that we were stuck with whatever condition, behavior, traits, or mental disposition forever...but that thinking is evolving...we now know we can now change our personality and thus personal reality as Dr. Joe Dispensa would say.

The new science says differently - it says our neural pathways, and just about everything about our lives, CAN BE ALTERED! We can rewrite and replace our old pathways. It's like updating the software on our computer. Our brains have this built in capacity to do the same. 

 

We simply go into our brain, check on our old neural circuitry, keep what works and erase or modify what doesn't work. With that modification we are not triggered into old behaviors and patterns such as mom jumping on chairs when seeing a spider. 

And most importantly - no more doing anything we don't want to do.

Any new information creates new pathways in our brain. We are not stuck; we are free to feel, do, and be whatever we want.

NOTES:

THE KEY IS...WE CAN CHANGE THE OUTCOME TO MOST ANY GOAL OR CHALLENGE WE CHOOSE BY GETTING IN OUR HEADS AND REWIRING OUR NEURONS!

Whatever our goals and challenges are, they are largely influenced by how our brain has been wired from the experiences in our lives since birth. 

For example: 

  • we witnessed a parent screaming and jumping on a chair when they saw a mouse, our neurons may have wired in a way to make us do the same;

  • or we heard classmates making fun of us when we said something in class, our neurons reacted, and we may now shake at the thought of public speaking; 

  • or we missed an easy goal in an important game recently or long ago, unless we weaken or rewrite the neural recording, we may forever doubt our skills...

  • and so on.

 

However, as the evolving science of neuroplasticity is revealing, our neural wiring, which controls how we act or exist in the world, is amazingly adaptable and malleable.

If we choose, we can rewire our brains to not be afraid of a mouse, public speaking, or getting that goal.

 

If we choose, our mental and emotional limitations to our goals and challenges can be tweaked or changed for the better!

We CAN rewire and change the outcome to mostly any goal or challenge. ​

The good news is there are many ways to rewire our neurons including visualization, exercise, various methods of psychology, NLP, Hypnosis, and more.
