The Brain that Changes Itself

[pennyofheaven]

Therapies. For example, I read somewhere that some anti-depressant medication is used to increase brain plasticity that can then be exploited in therapy to correct the patient's "issues".

 

I don't know how reliable this idea is. Sounds fishy when compared with other research that suggests that the brain's plasticity is an ongoing thing. I'd say that qi-gong is the best research tool for plasticity (and many other things) that I've come across so far!

 

I tend to agree with you. Any drug induced state is not reliable. Natural access to developing these pathways are far more useful and longer lasting.
