Neuroplasticity

Your brain is like "Play-Doh." Every time you learn something new, your brain grows a new "bridge." You can literally shape your brain by practicing and being brave!

The feeling of "I can do this!" after you've practiced a lot.

Neuroplasticity involves Synaptic Pruning and Long-Term Potentiation (LTP). It demonstrates the Malleability of Consciousness. This connects to Phenomenology — where our experiences literally construct the architecture of our perceived reality.

SOUND: The "clink" of a lightbulb moment in your head.

SMELL: The smell of a new book or a new classroom.

TASTE: Trying a food you used to hate and realizing you like it now.

TOUCH: The feeling of your fingers learning to tie a shoelace or play an instrument.

SIGHT: Seeing a "path" get wider the more people walk on it.

BODY: The "shaky" feeling of learning to ride a bike becoming "smooth."
