The human brain is an organic whole. Every movement, every thought will drive the operation of our whole brain. Even when we fall into a deep sleep at night, the brain is still working.
The part of the brain that is responsible for processing various parts of information is distributed in our brain, which is not as advertised in many "right brain dominance theories": "The right brain is the dominant brain and the left brain is the inferior brain. The memory capacity and memory speed of the right brain are 654.38+0 million times that of the left brain. "
Just as Dr. Rogers Perry's theory of the division of labor between the left and right brains has been misinformed for many years, the real situation is not what we are familiar with: "the left brain is a logical brain, the right brain is an image brain" or "the right brain is an emotional brain".
In the Nobel Prize-winning paper of 198 1, Dr. Rogers Perry once had such a deliberately forgotten statement that "the theory of division of labor between left and right brain is limited to the observation results of epileptic patients after corpus callosum resection, and there is no such research for ordinary people." In other words, the theory of division of labor between left and right brain is limited to the study of epileptic patients, and this theory is not applicable to normal people.
Humans have all kinds of potentials. For example, athletes can run faster, jump higher and throw farther than others on the field. Similarly, in real life, there are cases in which mothers roll over to save their children, so we must first understand that this potential is developed and what benefits this potential has.
Obviously, what we are talking about here is the development of brain potential. Here's how to develop the potential of the brain.
In the human brain, information transmission depends on synapses. The more and thicker the synapses, the faster the information transmission and the faster the brain works. Just like some people can see more than a dozen steps in chess, some people can only see two or three steps. But as long as the corresponding deliberate practice is carried out, two or three steps will extend to more steps. This can also be said to be potential development.
Therefore, the development of brain potential should be based on the following aspects:
Exercise "body": body is the capital of revolution. Humans exercise themselves and constantly seek the way of breakthrough, always following the steps of "body, mind and brain", and having a healthy body is the foundation of everything. At present, the proportion of sports scores in the senior high school entrance examination items is from scratch. From the formal examination to the real examination, it has been fully explained that the country has higher and higher requirements for students' physical quality. Only by having a healthy body can we cope with more and more challenges in the future.
Exercise of "mind": Because information is very developed now, children will receive all kinds of information in the process of growing up, and a lot of information will cause unnecessary interference to children, such as "unhealthy games", "some information that is convenient to obtain but not accurate" or some bad information that we don't want children to come into contact with.
Complicated information, coupled with children's young age and relatively weak ability to identify and absorb information, make children's "heart" unstable and vulnerable to external interference, which is a stage that children must go through in their own physical and mental growth. At this time, strengthening the training of children's emotional management and "centering" ability is very beneficial to their future growth;
Exercise of "brain": While exercising "body" and "heart", you can also exercise "brain". The existing "brain training" system is basically based on memory training, thinking training and perception training.
What we usually learn in school is mainly memory training and thinking training, such as Chinese learning, texts to be memorized, reading comprehension and writing training. Perception training can make us more sensitive to the changes in the world, let us have a pair of bright eyes and find many bright spots or unusual places, thus enhancing our observation and imagination.
As can be seen from the above description, the potential development is multifaceted, so the role of potential music in the whole process is relatively limited, and it is not as magical as advertised by many institutions or companies, especially those who mainly sell "right-brain headphones" or "smart phones", and there is no corresponding course training system as a support. After all, we all know that headphones are just carriers, and they are "music" playing devices.
Potential music can be roughly divided into two types: alpha Boeing music and alpha wave music with pulse signal after synthesis, and the core of which is basically alpha wave music. We all know that alpha wave music can calm people's hearts, and when our "brain" or even our "heart" really calms down, our perception of the whole world will be enhanced, and our brain will be in a relaxed state at this time. At this time, memory or thinking training will get twice the result with half the effort, which is what we all know as the "flow" state.
When we can relax ourselves when necessary and reach the state of "flow" through deliberate training, our potential is actually in an open state.
Therefore, potential music can play a certain role, but it is not the function of developing potential itself, but it needs targeted training to really play a role in developing potential.
Potential music, which sounds good, is presented in the form of headphones (smart phones) after packaging, as if it were "tall". But after careful study, what matters is not the earphone that looks good, but the music stored in the earphone. Just like although expensive packaging will make moon cakes look noble, when we open the packaging, the moon cakes inside are still moon cakes, and their essence will not change because of the change of the outer packaging.
The development of potential needs to follow strict steps, and it is not easy to get it, let alone what kind of realm can be achieved by listening to a few pieces of music. I hope everyone can strengthen their discriminating ability when choosing, so you might as well wait and think more, lest you spend money and not get the corresponding results.
