He is also the author of Soft-Wired: How the New Science of Brain Plasticity Can Change Your Life.&amp;nbsp; In this episode listen and discover:  How you can improve your auditory listening abilities with neuroplasticity-based training to sharply improve your conversational, cognitive, speech and music abilities. How training your brain as a master listener also refines your attentive powers and amplifies your baseline level of arousal-your \u201cbrightness.\u201d Evidence that these gains are attributable to strong, positive, enduring physical changes in your brain.
