This is EXACTLY what I struggle with. Definitely needed this reminder today. Damn
How chronic stress changes your brain. Making it harder to problem solve. Having less dopamine, less motivation and persistency. Tendency for apathy and learned helplessness.
Yeah, that's my daily struggle :/
(Obviously this applies to any chronic stress. I'm white and Finnish lol)

How did you learn to draw people? Or I guess, what was the most helpful step in learning how to? My 3 figure drawing classes should point to improvement, but my people still just look like fucked up squiggly rat men. I adore your artwork and how natural you make it seem!!!
I think it's about repetition, and analysis - but it's also like. You are on the right way, if you can see your mistakes! Our perception and motor skills don't evolve simultaneously, so there's sometimes the stage where you can see your mistakes, but not yet correct them. With practice you'll catch up! For me it's always helpful to try to identify and pinpoint what's wrong and correct that - my best tip if you work digitally would be to KEEP. FLIPPING. THAT CANVAS. It will trick your brain to identify your mistakes!
There are a lot of tutorials out there (especially on youtube) on how to learn to draw, how to find and use good reference - there is not much I can add to that - but the one thing I'd advice you to always keep thinking of is: Is this fun? Building skill takes time, and as long as it contiues to be fun, and not frustrating, and you enjoy doing it, you'll get better all by yourself.
#My brain instantly:#the automaitcity of compelx motor skill learning and the function of attentional external focus??#but then I was like - calm down. Not every question is about neuroplasticity#*whispers* even if this is how you gain any new skill-#next week is exam week and my brain is full of brain facts (oh the irony) and also my hair is falling out#the typical pre-exam stuff :')#but I hope I could give you a satisfactory answer anon!

Wait you portuguese??
nope, american! but I speak it, my parents taught me as a baby right alongside english. allegedly I didn't actually speak any english until I went to preschool, and even then all I knew how to say was "where is the bathroom"
#finx rambles#I assume I did understand more than that#since I did after all learn both languages side by side#'a is for apple! maçã!'#so I presume I picked up the speaking of english pretty quick#since I had that good good childhood neuroplasticity

i keep baby cousin posting every fucking time i go to see him & i am not sorry because he is amazing. anyways small children are so wild, you can see their brains developing in real time, it's insane.
#human neuroplasticity is insane even as adults#in fact especially as adults bc the way our brain keeps developing forever is insane & very very unusual in the animal kingdom#but as babies it's turned up to 11 like holy shit. little kids learn EVERYTHING and they do it so fucking fast

crazy to think that the tiniest chemical imbalances of the simplest compounds or even elements can have such diverse & far- reaching effects. the human body truly is a wonder to behold :)
I like the fact that the two most well-known uses for lithium are treating people who are bipolar, and making batteries, which are also bipolar but in a completely different way.
#yes im a medical student#what gave it away?#i love the brain#brains are cool#and very silly#chemical imbalance of the brain is something that has fascinated me since i was maybe 8#i remember attending a day dedicated to neuroscience for kids organised by a museum at the time. it was glorious#and that was when i fell in love with the electric lump of fat#the way your brain could literally rewire itself#neuroplasticity and the way we learn and acquire knowledge#good shit#neuroscience#psychiatry#medical student#brain stuff#brain science

How Sleep Influences Neuroplasticity and Learning: A Deep Dive into Cognitive Health
Sleep is far more than a period of inactivity or rest. It’s a crucial state where the brain engages in numerous complex activities that promote memory consolidation, learning, and cognitive flexibility. The relationship between sleep, neuroplasticity, and learning is at the heart of cognitive neuroscience, with studies revealing that sleep is essential for the brain’s adaptability and growth. By…

Got so manic about Craft Time (TM) that I forgot to update everyone.
This is what the boots looked like when I got them:
And this is what they look like now:
Still a lot of work to do (Need to finish the top buckle and re-attatch the new Lace-Loops) but you begin to see my Vision.
Next up I found this cool jacket:
That needs some serious Decoration Upgrades, so that's today's project.
It's craft day! I got three different things to drink and it's time to fuckin' party!
#I am learning much right now#yes I'm still working on writing stuff but sometimes the fastest way to write is to put the doc away and do some neuroplasticity stretches#Like learning about 50 different types of glue and how to hand-stitch things that were never meant to be hand stitched#BUNNI

The Thalamus: Unreeling the Brain's Command Center
The Thalamus: Not the OS, But More Like a Central Router
In a computer, the operating system (OS) manages all software and hardware on the computer. It schedules tasks, efficiently manages computational resources, and facilitates user interaction with the system. While the thalamus does manage and direct information, it's not managing the brain's "software and hardware" in the full capacity that an OS would. Instead, a more accurate analogy would be to compare the thalamus to a central router or a network traffic controller within the brain's communication system.
The Thalamus: The Brain's Traffic Controller
Central Hub of Sensory Information Imagine your brain as the ultimate gaming setup, where the thalamus is the router, directing every bit of sensory input to its proper destination. It's like the central hub in a vast network, ensuring that signals from your eyes, ears, and skin are sent to the right places in your brain. Without the thalamus, your brain wouldn't be able to process that a puck has flown into the goal or that your favorite anime character just appeared on screen.
Master Regulator of Consciousness The thalamus doesn't just handle sensory data; it's like the power management system in your computer, determining when to wake up or go to sleep. By controlling this sleep-wake cycle, the thalamus acts like the system settings that switch your device from full brightness in gameplay to 'sleep mode' when it’s time to rest. This ensures you're alert when you need to be and helps you disconnect to recharge.
Enhancer of Memory and Learning Think of the thalamus as the save point in your favorite RPG. It works with the hippocampus — the memory storage in your brain — to turn your daily experiences into long-term memories. Just like saving your game progress, the thalamus helps encode new experiences so you can retrieve them later. Ever remember a scene from a manga or a game strategy days later? That's the thalamus at work!
Coordinator of Emotional Responses Your emotions are as varied as genres in manga and anime, from thrillers to romances. The thalamus connects to the limbic system, your brain's emotional heartland, to help you react appropriately to what you see and experience. It's like the emotion engine in a game, triggering a rush of adrenaline when you score a goal or a pang of sadness in a touching anime scene.
Architect of Smooth, Continuous Experience Just as a high-quality anime stream should be smooth and uninterrupted, the thalamus ensures your conscious experience is seamless. It links your moment-to-moment perceptions, much like a video buffer that ensures there's no lag or disruption in what you're watching or doing. This is why you can follow the puck in a fast-moving hockey game or get lost in the continuous story of a manga series without missing a beat.
Director of Your Dream World During REM sleep, the stage of sleep where you dream, the thalamus becomes the director of your own personal movie. It crafts vivid dream sequences that can be as bizarre and engaging as any anime adventure. These dreams are not just for entertainment; they help process emotions and solidify memories, like a recap or a filler episode that helps make sense of the main story.
The Brain's Resilience Builder Like the auto-update feature that improves your gaming experience, the thalamus supports neuroplasticity — your brain's ability to adapt and learn. After an injury or while learning a new skill, the thalamus helps rewire the brain, optimizing recovery and adaptation, ensuring that your brain remains as responsive and effective as the latest software update.
Why This Matters to You
Understanding the thalamus can change how we approach various brain disorders and everyday challenges. From treating insomnia and managing emotional responses to enhancing learning and memory, targeting the thalamus could lead to breakthrough treatments and improvements in cognitive health.
In Conclusion: Next time you dodge an opponent in a hockey game, enjoy a twist in your favorite manga, or recall a great anime episode, remember the thalamus. It’s the unsung hero behind the scenes, ensuring your brain's operations are as smooth and efficient as the best-designed games and stories. So, let’s give a nod to this powerhouse of the brain, powering up our experiences one moment at a time! 🧠🎮📚

GLOW UP GUIDE FOR 2025â €
READ: On average, it takes more than 2 months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And considering that 2025 is precisely these many days away, why not start with our glow up plan already?
Physical Glow Up-
BODY
— 5-10K steps a day.
— 7-8 hours of sleep.
— workout everyday for 1 hr atleast- yoga/stretching/pilates/cardio. a workout may take one hour, but your mood will be boosted for the next 12 hours.
— posture training.
— sunlight exposure after waking up for at least 10 minutes.
NUTRITION
— 2-3 liters of water every day.
— limit your caffeine intake.
— avoid sugars as much as you can.
— high protein diet, pre and probiotics.
— more fruits and veggies (+ green smoothies if you like).
— no junk/processed food/trans fat.
— no eating after 8 pm.
SKINCARE
— be clear on your skin type (oily, dry, combination, sensitive).
— once you're clear, use these accordingly- cleanser, toner, targeted serum, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen (≥50 spf).
— keep your bedding clean as well.
— no picking of skin on your lips, cuticle etc.
— gua sha to help improve blood circulation and lessen toxins.
— cold therapy may take three to five minutes of being uncomfortable, but your energy levels will be boosted for the rest of the day.
— remove makeup before you go to bed.
BODY CARE
— shower every day.
— exfoliate 2x a week.
— use body lotion (shea butter/aloe vera gel/coconut oil).
HAIR CARE
— wash hair 2-3x a week
— oil your scalp 2x a week, at least 3 hours before shampoo.
— hair mask 1x per week.
— never brush wet hair.
— use silk pillow case.
HYGIENE
— brush your teeth 2x a day, clean tongue and the roof of the mouth daily.
— floss daily.
— cut your nails 1x a week, never remove the cuticles.
— glycolic acid under arm for odor and discoloration.
— never use soap on your coochie.
Mental Glow Up-
MINDSET
— set clear goals- define and breakdown your aspirations.
— start your mornings with positive affirmations.
— surround yourself with uplifting content and people.
— be shamelessly selfish to your career and mental health, remove anyone or anything that doesn't align with your priorities and wellbeing.
— boost your brain health by these 4 neuroscience tools:
difficult first: start your day with the most difficult task (cortisol and dopamine are high in the body meaning that your body/mind is primed to work).
rest your eyes: introduce a micro-pause after learning by resting/closing your eyes - will help retain information better.
tomorrow's worries: write tomorrow's to-do list before bed as it is proven to be effective in helping you fall asleep.
find time to play: engage in low-stake play. can be anything you find fun but where the outcome doesn't matter (induces neuroplasticity + reduces stress).
MIND
— meditation might take as low as ten minutes, but your focus will be improved for the rest of the day.
— no social media after waking up and at least an hour before bed.
— keep aside 1 hr of time to read daily! reading a new book may take five hours, but you will keep the knowledge forever.
— journaling, gratitude.
— digital detox once a week or for 12 hours.
— limit unnecessary screentime, unfollow or cut off people you don't want to see.
JOURNALING
— choose a regular time each day to journal, making it a part of your routine.
— find a quiet, comfortable place free from distractions. light a candle if you want.
— allow your thoughts to flow without censoring or editing.
— write about your feelings and emotions to understand them better. write about things you are thankful for to boost your mood. write about your short-term and long-term goals. identify what triggers certain emotions or reactions
— set a timer for 5-10 minutes and write continuously during that time.
— reflect on both positive experiences and challenges.
— make lists, journal your thoughts on these questions.
— journal at night to clear your mind before bedtime, because emotions and thoughts lose their power once we acknowledge them.
— a gratitude practice may take five minutes, but your mindset will be shifted for the rest of the day.
AFFIRMATIONS
— customise affirmations to your needs.
Personal Life-
WEEKLY TASKS
— initiate small changes: begin with small, manageable tasks such as making your bed or cleaning your room every sunday.
— celebrate your success: reward yourself when you achieve your goals or have a consistently productive week. consider treats like buying flowers for yourself or watching your favorite show.
DAILY WORK
— set achievable goals: establish realistic goals for the day, week, or month ahead.
— track your progress.
— organise your work space, declutter your shelves etc.
— embrace the power of lists: keep a list of tasks to be done and their deadlines. this way, you start each day with a clear plan. to make it visually appealing and motivating, consider using productivity apps like evernote, habit tracker, or notion.
PRODUCTIVITY TIPS
— wake up early.
— plan ahead everything, do scheduling. you can use:
google calendar / notion / tasks .
— if the task takes less than 2 minutes to finish, do it immediately.
— countdown rule, if you are procrastinating, count 1-2-3-4-5 and jump.
— start slow, don't rush and try to do everything at one time.
— follow a proper routine, use app locks based on screentime.
— pomodoro technique, 25 min work, and 5 min break.
— schedule longer break times as well e.g 30 min nap.
