Who we are. Your minds can change the very substrate of its own operations. Helping us to learn. Adaptability is one of the most remarkable aspects of human intelligence, and i think plasticity is the mechanism behind it. And to heal. Well, neuroplasticity actually is at the core of neurorehabilitation. An active field of study thats helping us to understand how we became us. As things move forward, were going to see more and more how much our Motor Ability actually is tied to the way we think and feel. And i want to know whether theres anything we can do to harness or boost neuroplasticity in our daily lives. On thisjourney, im going to give you three hacks to help strengthen crucial connections and keep our minds younger in the process. As a science journalist, ive always been fascinated by the workings of the mind. And today ive come to royal holloway, University Of London to scan my brain before embarking on a six week brain altering course. Harp resonates. Im just taking a moment
Welcome back to the weekend, everyone. Prosecutors in donald trump trials that they could rest the case as early as next week. This after Stormy Daniels testified. Criminal charges dont hinge on Stormy Daniels testimony. This case is about concealing the Hush Money Payment that went to her. That is how Michael Cohens testimony will come into play and he is expected to take the stand on monday. Joining us now are our guests who are with us. Its so good to see you. If someone was not watching this week, if they were not following it be right be by be, what was your big take away from this we cracked i think a few things.

Ended up getting indicted. Newly released Court Transcripts show his outbursts earned him a stern rebuke from judge juan merchan. Judge merchan saying to trumps attorney, todd blanchethis, i understand that your client is upset at this point, but he is cursing audibly, and he is shaking his head visually, and thats contemptuous and has the potential to intimidate the witness and the jury can see that. Trumps attorney, mr. Blanche, quote, i will talk to him. Judge mer shonn speaking to the court, so i am speaking at the bench because i dont want to embarrass him. Mr. Blanche, i will talk to him. The judge, you need to speak to him. I wont tolerate that. Mr. Blanche, i will talk to him. Now, one of the moments that inspired that and angered trump so much was Stormy Daniels description of part of their encounter in a hotel room in 2006. For reference heres how she described it on camera for 60 minutes in all its cringeworthy glory. It started off all about him, just talking about himself
The whole thing three times. Our brain never evolved for any of this, and yet here we are, getting on with it as best as we can. And its all thanks to our brains incredible capacity to adapt, to learn, to grow. Im on a journey to understand the Miraculous Plasticity of the human brain. The brain will even change its structure. The core, the architecture of the brain can change. This is neuroplasticity. Once thought to be limited to youth, we now know its a Constant Force in shaping who we are. Your mind can change the very. Substrate of its own operations. Helping us to learn. Adaptability is one of the most remarkable aspects of human intelligence, and i think plasticity is the mechanism behind it. And to heal.
