4 Techniques to Lead a Neural Brainstorming
The brain basis of creativity according to neuroscience
When we talk about brainstorming, we often think of collective thinking sessions between individuals who share various insights.
What we may then overlook is the basic brainstorming that takes place in the brain of every individual, creating new connections from various neural networks.
Thanks to the increasingly rich contribution of the neurosciences, we can now understand this process of internal creativity that gives rise to new ideas.
According to Elkhonon Goldberg in Creativity: The Human Brain in The Age of Innovation, our brain has complex structures of neurons that are responsible for new mental models.
It includes structural asymmetry, the predominant influence of certain hormones such as dopamine, structural effects, and different bursts of activities.
These specificities define a method of neural brainstorming, which takes advantage of the brain’s creative potential to produce a flow of new ideas.
Here are 4 features of the brain that help to find intellectual enlightenment.
