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.

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.
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.
