VISUALIZATION: What it is and how to use it to your advantage
The brain's ability to react similarly to an imagined experience as to a real one is a fascinating and well-documented phenomenon.
When we imagine something, the same areas of the brain that are activated during the actual experience are involved. For example, visualizing a movement activates the motor cortex, the same area used during the execution of the movement itself.
Visualization is the process of vividly imagining a scene, a goal, or a desired outcome in your mind. It is a practice used in many fields, including sports, medicine, music, psychology, and personal development. In this video, we'll see how to practice the art of visualization and some techniques to make the entire process much easier.
