Brain Hack: 6 secrets to learning faster, backed by neuroscience |Lila Landowski

In a tedex bag, Dr. Leela Lowski described techniques that could be applied to help us learn more quickly. Dr. Leela Lowski is an award-winning neuroscientist and speaker. She skillfully equips people with knowledge about how the

brain

works so they can make better decisions. in her daily life, this video is to deepen her idea about the

secrets

to learn

faster

. Gosh guys, if you haven't subscribed to my channel yet, don't forget to subscribe and hit the Bell icon so you don't miss out. In the newly uploaded videos, let's take a walk through the neurobiology of six components of skiing that can accelerate your

learning

, they are errors, repetition, alertness, rest and rest, let's start with the basics, how do we really learn?

So, the scientific term neuroplasticity refers to our

brain

's ability to physically alter itself as a result of experience, so every time we learn a certain thing, be it information or skill, tiny microscopic connections emerge between nearby neurons in the brain. called synapses and the more we use it, whether it's information or talent, those connections become more powerful and better, later in his explanation he showed the neurons that he had filmed in a p-tree plate connecting, then he explained how to connect between Yeah. Now these amazing hand-like structures here are called growth cones and every neuron has one that actively senses the environment around them and helps each and every one of the 86 billion neurons in your brain find the right place to connect. .

Now you can experience things like problems with memory and learn when something goes wrong with that wiring process or even when it doesn't happen in the usual way - children are somewhat smarter than us, right, they just seem to need to be exposed to things. and they absorb what they are exposed to. Have you ever met someone with an extraordinary talent and thought that he or she has an intelligent talent? trick or magic that we don't know about, that's probably not the case if it's mainly about how early in life they started

learning

that talent as well as practice and perseverance, as a result the sooner the better people are as smart and talented did not acquire their talents at birth at the age of five, they had all genuinely started practicing, but as we grow during childhood and adolescence, it becomes unquestionably more difficult to learn and after reaching the age of 20, learning becomes significantly more difficult.

The good news is that there are things you can do about it. Number one: pay attention. One of the most crucial functions is attention. According to studies, these attention problems occur if you use your phone for more than an hour, so make an effort to use it less. There are often things now like focused attention meditation that you can do to improve if you want to improve your attention over time. You can actually just exercise if you want to significantly shorten the time it takes to increase your concentration. Additionally, studies have consistently shown that exercise improves memory and cognitive function number two.

The next trait is alertness. You will have a harder time remembering information if you are not completely focused on a task. Adrenaline and norepinephrine are released when our body's essential flight system or sympathetic nervous system is activated and that, among other things, will make us more conscious again. Exercise seems to be a recurring theme, you can practice certain exercises of breathing like hoof breathing, simply put, if you have been under a lot of stress your memory will be affected, so it is important to be kind to yourself, however, small amounts of stress are beneficial as they allow you to perform. to the maximum during sleep number three.

The hippocampus is now recognized as a specific region of the brain to be crucial for memory and learning. Because of this, the hippocampus actually keeps track of everything you do during the day, however, it only stores information there temporarily during sleep, all those short-term memories are transferred to the cortex and transformed into long-term memories. , so you can't turn those short-term memories into long-term memories if you don't get enough sleep, that's why getting enough sleep is so crucial to learning repetition number four when it comes to learning, repetition is essential, Since exercise strengthens muscles, hearing or seeing something repeatedly can strengthen the neural connections and circuits in the brain that are connected to it, this means that it is not enough to hear or see something once and expect to retain it forever, so This is what you should do.

Use the spacing approach to spread your learning over several days and repeat the concept you are trying to learn as many times as you can during that learning period, this gives your education the opportunity to extend those fresh long-term memories. Instead of spending the same amount of time on a single day, we realize that having two shorter learning periods on separate days can produce noticeably greater learning. Breaks number five Breaks play a crucial role in learning. Once you're done learning, be sure to take a 20-minute break. We will simply try to complete those routine things that you can complete without them. overthink if you're at work, also wait at least an hour before trying to master a similar skill, if possible do it the next day.

Mistakes number six. When you make a mistake, your modulators, like acetylcholine, are released and your attention networks focused. become more active and that heightened awareness and sense of worry plays a very important role, so here's what you need to do. You must prepare for some failure as you test yourself on that topic. Don't stop trying until everything is perfect. because if you make a mistake, in the end you will release neurological modulators that will improve your attention. Furthermore, if you do it correctly, the reward circuits will release substances such as dopamine that contribute to making you feel good and safe, so make learning a bit of a game. .

It can be so effective that you know not to see your anxiety as a bad thing when you make a mistake because it's really your brain's way of helping you be the best you can be. You can dig into that emotion and move on, which brings us to the end. of this video thank you for staying until the end of the video don't forget to like, share, subscribe and tell us what you think about this video Next, in the comments section, see you again with another useful video.
