2021-01-04
According to Squidoo, brain hacking is "to perform some act that gains access to the fundamental mechanism behind your mind and other people's minds by here-to-fore unknown or apparently mystical means."
From a scientific viewpoint, a brain hack is a maneuver of the neuronal system to (temporarily) alter is functions like focus, awareness, memory, and perception.
They say we only access (on average) 10% of our brains . . . Imagine tapping into the other 90% of your brains seemingly unlimited potential?! It doesn’t require a PhD to understand how and leverage the way the brain functions.
Leading neuroscientists explain that mental hacks usually affect the brain through two overlapping but distinct mechanisms: the neurotransmitter and hormonal system. Imagine being able to achieve and maintain peak mental performance?! There are actionable tips and exercises you could put to work immediately to help you reach your desired mental state.
Quote: My brain power depends on my retained mastery of analyzing in detail what's happening in my world and in my mind and body. I must continue to practice to retain my constructive and analytic powers. The goal is to be a master of my environment. - Michael Merzenich
How do we begin to hack, train, re-wire, challenge and develop your brain?! How do we configure out brain so that we feel happy, satisfied, fulfilled, healthy, strong and uninhibited more often?!
