The Social Brain Ep. 11: Master Any Skill – Neuroscience of Motor Learning

These days, it's easy to take for granted the incredible complexity of motion, the way we are able to move through the world with such ease. We don't often think about the countless hours of practice, the countless micro-adjustments, and the countless neurons firing in our brain to make it all happen.   Yet, motion is a form of intelligence, and understanding the neuroscience of motor learning can give us a tremendous power to master skills. We’ll be talking about the simple to implement principles from modern neuroscience that will revolutionize the way that you engage with the world and approach skill acquisition in your life.   Most importantly, we’ll look at the process of automatization and how “thinking” can often get in the way when you start getting better at the motor skills that you are passionate about.   --   What do you want us to cover in future episodes?
