We can’t touch time, or smell it. Yet it is utterly inescapable. But, research shows, time is – at least partly – something we control in our heads. Although we rely on other ques when they are available, have you ever woken from a good sleep because you have told yourself you must get up at [...] …Another fundamental skill that one can learn from NLP Practitioner training is how to re-program our own responses or neural-pathways to create change. The simplest way that you can do is remember a time that you might have lost your temper and reacted very strongly, only to regret what you said or did later. This is a bit like [...] The Peeriodic Table of Illusions from an article on http://www.newscientist.com 12 November 2009 by Richard L. Gregory, Magazine issue 2733. © Copyright Reed Business Information Ltd. Excerpt…. FOR all the fun we have with them, illusions do serious work in illuminating how our brains work, and in particular how perception works. They may also [...] Loneliness is infectious according to a study cited in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology for Dec/09. http://www.apa.org/journals/psp Is this the work of those Mirror Neurons again? “Before losing their friends, lonely people transmit feelings of loneliness to their remaining friends, who also become lonely. Because loneliness is associated with mental and physical diseases that [...] How to Get Smarter, One Breath at a Time By Lisa Takeuchi Cullen (Time Magazine) Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2006 One recent study found evidence that the daily practice of meditation thickened the parts of the brain’s cerebral cortex responsible for decision making, attention and memory. Sara Lazar, a research scientist at Massachusetts General Hospital, presented [...] Full atricle – neurophilosophy Category: Neuroscience • Vision, Posted on: November 6, 2009 12:50 PM, by Mo A novel temporal illusion, in which the cause of an event is perceived to occur after the event itself, provides some insight into the brain mechanisms underlying conscious perception. The illusion, described in the journal Current Biology by a [...] These are demonstrations surrounding Phantom Limbs. The concept is interesting for understanding our body and the subject of proprioception and how we perceive our bodies. Video: Derren Brown working with a man’s Phantom Limbs Derren Brown works with a person’s Phantom Limb and demonstrates how he can touch limbs that don’t even exist. How he [...] The research into neuroplasticity in neuro-science gives us an insight into what is possible for NLP interventions and generally how the brain functions. NORMAN DOIDGE, a PSYCHIATRIST in Canada and author of Dr. Paul Bach-y-Rita, had been working on sensory substitution and he found a way to give her a hat that contained something called an [...] I Didn’t Sin—It Was My Brain Brain researchers have found the sources of many of our darkest thoughts, from envy to wrath. by Kathleen McGowan; illustrations by Christopher Buzelli From the September 2009 issue, published online October 5, 2009 This article talks about the research neuroscience has begun into such things as inhibitory cognitive control networks involving the [...] This is a link to the transcript of a Catalyst Report which is about the Synaesthesia. This use of the term Synaesthesia is basically the same concept that NLP has had from many years ealier. See our previous article on Synaesthesia to understand a little more about the concept from both an NLP perspective, and [...] The Monthly – AUSTRALIAN POLITICS, SOCIETY & CULTURE Below are two links to videos of a presentation which is about the Synaesthesia. This use of the term Synaesthesia is basically the same concept that NLP has had from many years ealier. In NLP, the phenomenon of “overlap” has many applications, but specifically it is where [...] Cautions for fMRI Researchers – evidence that dead Salmon produce some brain activity may start correction and re-checking fMRI studies. Hopefully, all advances in this area will produce greater evidence that can be relied upon for how neural activity can be studied in more depth. fMRI studies on dead Atlantic Salmon and the research [...] This is a fascinating study of a sever epilepsy patient, who had his left and right brains surgically disconnected, and the expeirments they were able to do with him revealed a lot about the way our two hemispheres normally interact. The original mirror-neuron concept, involving observation in another of an intentional, meaningful, goal-directed action, is clearly motor, unlike synaesthesia for touch or for pain, and may play a key role in action-understanding and imitative learning, even perhaps the acquisition and evolution of language, skills, and tool manufacture and use. Thus, to understand the goal of another person’s behaviour, we must not only match it against our own motor system, but also covertly imitate the other’s action. Indeed, forty years ago, the Motor Theory of Speech Perception proposed that we understand another’s speech by covertly and subvocally recreating, in real time, the speaker’s likely mouth movements, rather than by merely following the speech sounds. This year dramatic support came from the finding that what you hear when listening to ambiguous samples like ‘head’ and ‘had’ is influenced by externally-induced experimental deformations of the skin around your lips; you almost literally hear with your mouth! The old motor theory of speech perception clearly anticipated features of the mirror neuron hypothesis. It is also compatible with the widely-held belief that verbal language evolved from gestural communication, rather than from earlier primate patterns of [...] Harvard psychiatary research – 20 minute video where Jill Bolte Taylor gives a very good description of the right and left hemisphere function… as it relates to her own experiences too.
