Opening Insights: Embracing the Right Brain

We often hear about people who have experienced a stroke. However, many of us are ignorant to their experience, the recovery process and the journey they go on as they find their way from a stroke back to "life."

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard-trained and published neuroanatomist who experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain in 1996. On the afternoon of this rare form of stroke (AVM), she could not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. It took eight years for Dr. Jill to completely recover all of her physical function and thinking ability. She is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey (published in 2008 by Viking Penguin).  In 2008, Dr. Jill gave a presentation at the TED Conference in Monterey, CA, which turned out to be the first TED talk to ever go viral through the internet. TED and Dr. Jill became world famous instantaneously and her TED talk is now one of the top 5 most viewed TED talks of all time. This now famous 18-minute presentation catapulted her story into the public eye, and within six weeks of presenting that TED talk, Dr. Jill was chosen as one of TIME Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World for 2008, she was the premiere guest on Oprah's Soul Series web-cast, and her book My Stroke of Insight became a New York Times bestseller.

Informational Insights: Exploring the Stroke of Insight

 

Possibilities for Consideration: A Balanced Brain

Dr. Richard Jorgensen, the founder and CEO of AwareComm and Pocket Wisdom Insights, went on the same journey as Dr. Taylor. He too had a stroke, and like Taylor, experienced a different side of life and worked his way up from the bottom. He used Personal Learning Technology, that he created prior to his stroke, to rebuild and re-balance his brain. This technology is used and offered within the Pocket Wisdom Insights Co-Lab today!

  • Imagine the possibilities of understanding how to think and experience life with your whole brain.
  • Imagine a world where you are able to experience emotions without becoming stuck in them.
  • Imagine a world where we can understand and accept those who have different brain functions, like people with autism, ADD/ADHD, addiction, developmental delays, TBI, PTSD, etc.

My stroke of insight would be: peace is only a thought away, and all we have to do to access it is silence the voice of our dominating left mind.

FOOTNOTE of Importance


Our world is experiencing an incredible revolution powered by technology that has used its tools to:

  • deceive the public
  • disrupt tradition
  • divide the people

This has inadvertently resulted in a Fear-based Shadow Culture™ that has hurt many people.
A powerful group of influence has joined together to deliver a proven antidote by shifting from impersonal development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to replace people to utilize AI to empower Human Intelligence (HI).
