TED
http://www.ted.com Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor had an opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: One morning, she realized she was having a massive stroke. As it happened — as she felt her brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement, understanding — she studied and remembered every moment. This is a powerful story about how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another.

He says everything correctly, so it is. We are consciousness-energy, and we project our own world. In order to know ourselves as true, we must stop the internal dialogue of the left hemisphere, which is used to divide and evaluate.
God bless this person
TED gibi konuş??
It seems like the left brain experiences the more strokes than the right. My ex roommate had the same kind of stroke when she was in her teens. She showed me her brain scan and the location was exactly at the same as the presenters. She can't see out of her right eye very well even though there is nothing wrong with it. The damaged part of her brain can't process it. My theory is the left brain works harder in our society so requires more demand for blood flow. Brain scans seem to show it as well. We may find in the future that meditation is a necessity for mental health…give the left brain a rest.
Ela disse que podemos escolher o lado, mas me sinto prisioneiro do esquerdo
Harmony comes with meditation, not medication.

Martha Beck brought me here and I'm so grateful 👐🏾
This is seriously the most inspirational talk I’ve ever seen. I do NOT say that lightly!
According to English psychiatrist Dr. R. D, . Laing, " Schizophrenia is a mystic experience.". He has written a book DIVIDED SELF.
She definitely did DMT 😂❤️
I think I recently heard that the brains hemispheres aren't very different they are just left brain controls left arm, left eye, left leg,etc.
Dear Jill, your humor, and your very lovely detailed story along with your bravery give all of us hope to live our life without fear and with joy.
When I was in elementary school, my Dad worked at a very small local hospital and got me about 1/4 of a human brain to take to school for “Show and Tell.” Obviously that would never happen now, but it was really cool, other than the fact that my teacher thought it was gross 😃
I hate that intro.
A month ago this type of stroke occurred to my wife. This is the first moment I’ve been able to understand what happened to her. Thank you so much.
Awesome

Just take LSD in your times off and get back to work with your left brain so people don't die.
And thats why we must do hijama at least once in a year
Classic lecture.
