the growth mindset
developing a GROWTH MINDSET
The Growth Mindset — the belief that we are in control of our own ability, and can learn and improve — is what enables us to achieve emotional, psychological, and cognitive growth that results in enhanced stress resilience and greater overall well-being.
The Growth Mindset underscores our human potential for achievement.
UNDERSTANDING HOW THE BRAIN WORKS
At Clarity Coaching Lab, we draw on neuropsychology, research of how the brain works and the links between the brain’s mechanics and chemistry; our functioning and behaviour; and our interactions and experiences.
NEUROPLASTICITY, OR HOW THE BRAIN CHANGES
The concept of brain change, or neuroplasticity, is now well established in neuroscience. Ample research supports the idea that our brains remain adaptable (or plastic) throughout our lifespan. Rather than the brain being a static organ or one that simply degenerates with age, the brain is now understood as an organ that is constantly reshaping itself, and being continuously influenced, by the forces around us.
INCREASING OUR NEURAL GROWTH.
Research on brain plasticity has shown how connectivity between neurons can change with experience. With practice, neural networks grow new connections, strengthen existing ones, and build insulation that speeds the transmission of impulses. These neuroscientific discoveries have shown us that we can increase our neural growth through the actions we take, using good strategies, asking questions, practicing, and following healthy nutrition and sleep habits.
