1 Hour Brain Power | Harnessing Pathways 101

cover art
We are unaware of most of the things our brains do. But we can become aware and use some of those things to improve how we think and learn. With this course, in 1 hour, you'll use some of your brain powers to enhance retention and recall. Just put on your headphones, get moving, listen and imagine.


Through a very concrete, practical experience, this course will show you that your brain is wired to remember certain types of information, while it easily forgets other types. The course will guide you through two learning strategies and then combine them. After you have lived the experience and seen in your mind how powerful the methods are, we will break down why and how they work. The goal is to reveal the underlying principles that make these methods effective, so you can use those principles in other learning situations.  

The exercise we will complete in this course will result in you learning a 10 digit number. But what you learn is not really about the number. This method gives you a fascinating insight into how the human brain works. Into how you can get even boring information in there and make it stick. 

This course does not delve into the theoretical depths of brain funtioning or learning theories; it's main goal is to provide an experience that will allow you to see some of your brain's powers (and weaknesses) with your own mind. 

The course is divided into 6 audio lessons and can be completed in about 1 hour. In the files section within each lesson, I provide a document to help you quickly review the content covered. Besides attentively listening to the audios, it's a good idea to take some time to review the documents. 

This course is designed for you to complete it while you are moving. Because movement is magic! You can perform any movement that keeps your body active, but does not require you to think about the movement. You have to be able to perform the movement mechanically, and ideally get your heart rate up. Some ideas:

  • Take a brisk walk around your neighborhood
  • Go cycling in a familiar place
  • Jump rope without counting jumps
  • Hop on your favorite cardio machine at the gym
  • Or if you can't do any of those things, you could also fold laundry, drive or wash dishes while you listen to this course. But in my experience, combining audio learning with cardio is best. 

You are amazing.

Put on your headphones, get moving and and discover some of your brain's natural powers!

WHAT YOU WILL GET

trip_origin
You will learn about how your own cognition and memory works, through experience.
trip_origin
You will understand, through experience, that some types of information are particularly "sticky".
trip_origin
You will learn to use the "stickiness" of certain types of information in one practical, concrete application: learning numbers.
trip_origin
You will learn the principles behind the effectiveness of the methods we will use, so you can apply them in other learning contexts.
trip_origin
You will use your imagination and laugh (or at least giggle) when you apply the method.
trip_origin
You will move while you learn. Not sit and listen!

Instructor

Catalina Romero Clapper
For more than 15 years, I have designed and developed learning experiences. During this time, I have studied a lot about neuroscience, learning, memory, and cognitive optimization. I am fascinated by Natural Intelligence: understanding how our intelligence has evolved, what its natural strengths and weaknesses are, and how we can leverage them to empower ourselves.
