inhibition/innhibition

Inhibition, or innhibition, refers to the process by which certain brain signals suppress or reduce the activity of other signals. Think of it as a filter that prevents unnecessary or conflicting information from interfering with our decisions, actions, or thoughts. This mechanism helps us focus, stay calm, and avoid impulsive reactions by controlling the flow of neural activity. Essentially, inhibition acts as a neural brake, allowing the brain to prioritize important signals and maintain balanced functioning.
