Yes.

Our brain has a remarkable ability to rewire itself to learn, grow, and heal.

Neurology is fucking incredible.

Neuroplasticity and its ties to manifesting 101

Hey yall while im on hiatus i did some research,watched and read stuff in a deeper sense and id like to share my research foundings with yall (idgaf that ive literal 2 college exams this weekend) feeling like a future workaholic.. lol

Manifesting and neuroplasticity are essentially two sides of the same coin. Manifesting represents kinda the more mental, energique, or intention focused aspect of the process while the neuroplasticity is the biological and physical version of this mental process in the brain. When we visualize something or likr use affirmations, or consistently keep our focus on a specific goal, we essentially rewiring our brains, quite literally. Theres something called ''the reticular activating system (aka RAS) and Focus. At the root of our brains theres a neural network called the RAS, which acts as a kind of "info filter." cause we cannot process billions of pieces of data from our environments simultaneously, the RAS only lets information that it believes to be "important" to us into our consciousness.

Neuroplasticity aspectof the manifestation is i think that when we consistently focus on a goal, dream, or positive thought, the RAS labels it as "vitally important." and it strengthens the connections by firing that neuronal pathway every day, and as a result, the brain begins to see opportunities, coincidences, and information related to that goal more clearly in the outside world. A door we'd have passed by without noticing suddenly catches our eye. Besides, you probably heard about the phenomenon that the brain's inability to distinguish between "reality" and "imagination", neuroscience studies shows that the neural pathways fired during an actual action are almost identical to the interruptions fired when that action is merely vividly replayed in the mind (aka what we call, visualization/imagination).

"i feel and visualize the future i want as if im already living in it."

So basically every time we visualize that achievement or situation in our minds, our brain begins to physically build and strengthen the synapses (brains connections) associated with that experience. so, the brain becomes familiar with that situation. So this, in turn, actually deos reduce fear, increases confidence, and makes it easier to take action when pursuing that goal in life. And remember that one of the most important thing in the manifestarion process is "removing blockages" and changing limiting beliefs in the subconscious (for ex. like, "i cant do it," orrr "im inadequate").

Negative thoughts weve repeated for years are like thick,, smooth highways in our brain. Through manifesting practices (affs, journaling, mindfulness etc), each time we reject these old thoughts, we weaken (''prune'') those connections. By consistently repeating new, positive thoughts, we actually build new neural pathways from scratch!!!!!! Over time, these new pathways become our automatic way of thinking, and oour new identity!

Now i'll give a quick example of how to manifest a desired face. Currently when you look in the mirror, your RAS is programmed according to your old beliefs. such as ''ugh my nose is that, my skin is this..'' (insert features u want to change) Every time you look in the mirror, your brain automatically uses these old pathways, searching for flaws and reinforcing that perception. You need to radically change your perspective when looking in the mirror!!!! When you assume you already possess the desired face features, the RAS begin working to alter the evidence in the outside world. Instead of "waiting to see" the change, you must look in the mirror believing that the change has already begun at a cellular level!!!! The RAS will consider that new "perfect" image youre focusing on as vital and shift your perception accordingly!

Close your eyes, and visuzalizse you have the facial features you desire, but dont just look at a photo from the outside (this is called a third person perspective and doesn't create enough impact on the brain). Use a first person perspective. in your mind,,raise your hands and touch that smooth skin, that nose or jawline youre imagining, feel the sensation at your fingertips. Hear your friends saying, "oh hey your face has a different glow, what did you do???" In your mind the brain will fire synapses during this visualization as if you actually possessed those physical features.

also, dont forget,

Our DNA is not ''a fixed destiny'' which genes are active and which are deactivated (epigenetics) changes depending on the environment, stress levels, and mental state. When you experience the confidence comfort, and satisfaction that comes from having the face you desire (or literally any desire), your cortisol levels decrease. When stress hormones decrease and your cells receive the "im safe and im great!!!" signal, your blood flow,, collagen production, cell renewal rate, and even the tension level of your facial muscles (aka micro expressions) change. So basically this, over time, makes your facial features more symmetrical, your skin brighter and more vibrant,, in other words, your physical biology obeys your mind.

The key tip here is that the process speeds up the moment we stop "struggling" and "forcing" when manipulating the RAS. The brain is most readily accepts signals that flow smoothly and effortlessly as commands.
