I have for the last year been adapting my clinical practice in an addiction agency to Utilize neuroplasticity, the results so far have been very positive in the area of changing clients habits and perceptions. in some cases the client has not only stopped drinking but finds the thought of drinkin alcohol nauseous.

What I find fascinating is that all of the research evidence of brain plasticity reminds one so much of the effects of stimuli on the body’s musculature: The right physical exercise strengthens and modifies our musculature. The right mental exercise does the same for the brain.
