The Brain that changes itself-

What do you think of when you are asked 'What is your definition of nature'? Some say it consists of forces and processes that produce and control all the phenomena of the material world. Others think it means the world of living things and the outdoors. Is the brain a part of nature?
Today, it was brought to my attention - the three great ideas of nature.

1. Nature as like a vast organism (held by the ancients,some non- western cultures)
      a. All things insofar as they moved were thought to be alive.
      b. Insofar as they were ordered were thought to partake in intelligence.
      c. Insofar as they occupied space, were thought to be made of material or atoms.

2. Nature as a vast mechanism-this spurred on the new physics of Galileo, led to the idea that the 'brain' was a machine. Socrates thought the brain was mechanistic and could be altered.

3. Nature as a changing process began with fossils.

I find the 'Brain and how it functions' a most interesting topic which we can be well informed by reading the most interesting book ' The Brain that changes itself ' written by :
Dr. Doidge M.D.( Psychiatrist and Researcher and Author)
Sunday night  I will talk more about how you and I can change our brains by using our mind so as to give us a more positive result as we get older and have natural age decline.
