198. Optimize Your Brain through NeuroMovement with Anat Baniel

The human brain is an endless source of mystery and wonder. It’s the most powerful computer we know of, at least for now, and it’s a tool that has allowed the human race to achieve incredible things. The brain is also much more flexible and adaptable than many people realize. Someone who understands this more than most is Anat Baniel. She’s a psychologist, best-selling author of two books, Move Into Life and Kids Beyond Limits, and the creator of NeuroMovement, a powerful methodology that uses physical movement to rewire the brain. NeuroMovement is practiced around the globe and can be used as a treatment for pain, traumatic brain injury, and stroke. It’s also a method for achieving peak performance and even a way to combat aging. If you find your mental performance lagging, know that you’re not hardwired that way. Like the muscles in your body, your brain can get flabby without proper care. NeuroMovement reminds us that we need to take a holistic approach to our mental and physical health. Tune in as Anat explains the amazing science behind using your body to optimize your brain.
