“The Plasticity of the Brain Expanding Boundaries”

     Another exciting avenue of research, enriching the brain’s general capabilities, has tremendous potential.  Traditionally, people have been taught that they have to live with the limitations they were born with.  If you are born with an IQ of 85, then you have that level of intelligence for life.  Another old belief is that brain damage is permanent because the brain cannot regenerate.  Yet researchers have established that these ideas are wrong.  The mind is capable of astounding regeneration, growth, and change.  Most of the brain’s systems are plastic, meaning that they can change.  Most of the brain’s systems are plastic, meaning that they can be modified by learning, including the training that takes place with neurotherapy.  In addition, such experiences change the brain’s cellular structure through the branching of neuronal axons and new synaptic growth at the point at which the brain cells communicate.  Researchers have shown that the IQ increases by 10 to 12 points with routine brain wave biofeedback:  this research confirms that structural changes take place in the brain as a result of neurotherapy.”  pp. 31-32.  Biofeedback for the Brain by Paul G.
