The brain is made up of nerve cells, each  interconnected into complex networks or circuits that work in combination to increase or decrease brain cell activity. These networks are constantly changing to adapt to our needs, a process called neuroplasticity.  Neuroplasticity describes the ability of individual nerve cells to physically change in response to our actions and experiences. In essence, neuroplasticity allows the brain to understand, learn, respond, and adapt to our activities, experiences and surroundings for optimal function and survival.

The brain impacts more than how we think or feel. It also regulates the control of our organ systems, immune and other body functions similar to the way a conductor interprets the music and brings dozens of people and their instruments together in harmony: all to create a musical performance with a specific impact or effect on the listener.

When we think about a holistic sense of wellbeing and successful aging we are in essence describing a way of living or lifestyle that enhances our positive neuroplastic potential to enhance our wellbeing for mind, body and soul. Learn more about Neuroplasticity.
