Jill Bolte Taylor has an “Aha” moment
by Bruce 13/06/08
What happens when the part of your brain that makes meditation so difficult switches off? Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor gives one of the most moving accounts of her own experience. One morning she had a stroke and as her brain slowly shut down she had some startling insights.
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.
Dear Bruce,
Thank you so much for sharing Dr. Taylor’s TED video. I can’t remember when I’ve seen such an inspirational video, and her book MY STROKE OF INSIGHT is the best non-fiction book I’ve read in years.
Thank you. Jerry
Truly amazing and inspirational!
As a transpersonal psychotherapist your story energizes me. As an individual human being it warms my heart and as a ‘particle’ connected to the whole universe - and every living thing, I send my unbounded love. Thank you for touching our world.
A truly inspirational and thought-provoking video. I wonder if that is the way babies feel the world before their reasoning left brain develops ....... I feel so glad to have seen it, thank you
