285. How to Activate Neuroplasticity With MS
In this episode, I'm continuing the conversation on neuroplasticity. Or, the way I like to explain it, the wifi connection between your brain and your muscles.
Here's the thing: your brain can keep adapting and building new pathways, even if you've been living with MS for years. That's not wishful thinking. That's real, and it's research-backed.
We'll talk through:
- What neuroplasticity actually is (in plain English, I promise)
- The MS-specific, functional exercises that help you build strength where it counts
- Why repetition and quality of movement matter more than how long you're working out
- How sleep, nutrition, and mindset quietly shape your MS symptoms day to day
- Simple ways to keep your routine fresh at home so you actually stick with it
