Why 40days frequently mentioned in Islamic text book and how to quit addiction and bad habits?

Recent research in neuroscience has shown that the brain synapses act like plastic and can be rewire or brain can rewire its neural pathways in remarkably little time(approx 40days). So to change a habit, continue practising namaj, meditate or perform some contemplative practice every day for 40 days and your brain will be rewired. You will then find you have a different perspective or point of view regarding the old behaviour, habits and addiction. Try it.


Synaptic pruning 

Synaptic pruning is the process of synapse eliminate the occur in a developing brain that is shedding unnecessary connection the selection of the pruned connection probably use it or lose it principal.
For neuron that fire together wire together
This means synapses that are frequently used have strong connection while the rarely use two synapse are eliminated.

Synapses are links between neurons through which they communicate so they are structures of different patterns inside the brain, they determine behavior, personality, way of thinking and possibly memory storage, now the more you emphasize on your negative emotions, the more the synaptic pathways for negativity will become strong and you will become more negative. On the other hand, if you try to resist negativity and negative emotions and concentrate more on positivity, the positive pathways will become strengthened and negative synaptic pathways will become weaker until they completely deteriorate and you will have in your brain a changed synaptic structure (neural rewiring) but getting there wouldnt be possible with an attitude that gets you to negativity in the first place, that attitude includes outlook, mindset, diet and physical activity, if they're poor, becoming positive just by thinking would be hard so some of the things that are vital for a triggering a positive mindset according to empirical data are, regular exercise, healthy and balanced diet (gut is connected with the brain so digestive system has huge influence on the brain, infact the neurotransmitter serotonin that regulates mood and libido is present in more quantity in the gut than the brain, so a balanced diet is extremely vital), engaging in activities and avoiding lazy routines, a healthy lifestyle, positive thinking, a change in perception (extremely important) for example, research suggests that practicing a thankful mindset (doesn't necessarily mean thankfulness to some sort of god) and an envy free mind is absolutely necessary to trigger a positive outlook and perception.

How to Supercharge Your Dopamine Levels Naturally and Never Feel Depressed or Anxious Again

Dopamine is the brain’s master chemical.  This single neurotransmitter is responsible for a plethora of mental and physical processes. By learning how to stimulate your own dopamine levels naturally, you can overcome depression, anxiety, apathy, and fear, while boosting feelings of pleasure created by this amazing little neuron. Dopamine is what rewards certain behaviors in us so that we do them again, and why certain drugs are  so addictive .  Cocaine , heroine and other opiates cause a dopamine  “super reward”  which makes their use highly desirable, until you experience the dopamine crash that comes once the illicit drug is absent from the physiology. The opiates bind to the  opiate receptors  in the brain, increasing a dopamine release, but once gone, there is an ever-increasing need for more opiate (or other drug) to induce the same dopamine-high. This is what causes drug addicts to resort to ever increasing, negative behaviors...

Generation, conduction and transmission of nervous impulse

Neurons are excitable cells because their membranes are in a polarised state. Do you know why the membrane of a neuron is polarised? Different types of ion channels are present on the neural membrane. These ion channels are selectively permeable to different ions. When a neuron is not conducting any impulse, i.e. resting, the axonal membrane is comparatively more permeable to potassium ions (K+) and nearly impermeable to sodium tons (Na+). Similarly. the membrane Is impermeable to negatively charged proteins present in the axoplasm. Consequently, the axoplasm inside the axon contains high concentration of K' and negatively charged proteins and low concentration of Na+. In contrast, the fluid outside the axon contains a low concentration of K+, a high concentration of Na+ and thus form a concentration gradient. These ionic gradients across the resting membrane are maintained by the active transport of ions by the sodium-potassium pump which transports 3 Na+ outwards for 2 K+ int...

Story of DMT a simple compound found throughout the nature which has profound effect on human consciousness

Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), also known as N,N-dimethyltryptamine, is a naturally-occurring tryptamine found in various animals, fungi, and plants. These tryptamines are often used by humans for their psychoactive properties, although not all tryptamines are psychoactive. DMT can be found in many species of plants. Genera such as acacia, anadenanthera, mimosa, piptadenia, and virola are some examples. DMT is rumoured to be produced in the pineal gland of human. DMT exists in our brains in order to provide consciousness, a necessary mechanism as a spirit molecule allowing us to gain access to non-material realms. DMT is the most powerful psychedelic know to man. According to researcher and psychiatrist, Rick Strassman MD, “A fundamental role of DMT in our consciousness is suggested by the brain's actively transporting DMT into its confines, using precious energy. DMT may be a spirit molecule, naturally produced and capable of transporting us to different states of mind an...
