Mental training
Originally a concept from sports psychology: athletes imagine movement sequences and optimize them in their minds. Although comparable methods are now also used in other areas of life, the effectiveness of mental training has been most thoroughly researched in athletes. According to research findings, mental imagery actually changes the brain. This works because imagining movement sequences activates similar areas of the brain as during actual training.
