Create new mental trails

What to know

Many people know what they would like to change in their. lives. They want to start new projects, say yes to opportunities or believe more in. their own abilities. Yet the same thing often happens over and over again. You do what you always do. Not because you lack willpower. But because the brain is designedto choose the familiar. In the lecture, Nina Fjelstrup gives an easy and understandableintroduction to how our thoughts, habits and actions are connected. With Based on mental training, she shows how the brain forms mental traces -a bit like paths in a forest. The more often we walk the same path, the clearerbecomes the path. Therefore, we automatically fall back into the patterns we alreadyknows. But new paths can be created. The lecture provides insight into how mental training can be usedto discover the patterns of thought and action that keep us stuck in the old. Participants also receive concrete tools on how to start creatingnew mental clues, so it becomes easier to act differently. - Date: 8 October 2026 - Time: 19:00–21:00 - Venue: Peder Syv Aftenskole - Address: Tofthøjvej 11, Viby Sjælland, Denmark
