Create new pathways

Create new pathways

Today’s Friday Fact is something that truly fascinates me. Humans have the ability to rewire their brains!  The old saying of ‘you can’t teach an old dog new tricks’ has been surpassed by scientists proving yes you can.  So how do you create new pathways? Scientists say that doing things differently and repeatedly, is the way to create new neural pathways.  You could take up a new hobby such as learning to play a musical instrument, or learn to speak a foreign language, in fact anything that involves new thinking is good for you.

My aim now is to regain my balance in my yoga postures, which thanks to MS I find extremely tricky. My goal is to build new pathways around my damage nerve cells, which I am sure will involve a lot of falling over!
