Dear friends💜
As some of you may know, I am a student again in an advanced yoga teacher training program. In the course about the brain we received a recommendation to watch a Ted Talk by Jill Bolte Taylor who is a neuroanatomist and author of My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey.
If you have not seen the talk, I highly recommend it. You can watch it here.
Here is a quote from the talk:
“Who are we?
We are the life force power of the universe with manual dexterity and two cognitive minds. And we have the power to choose, moment by moment, who and how we want to be in the world. Right here, right now, I can step into the consciousness of my right hemisphere, where we are. I am the life force power of the universe. I am the life force power of the 50 trillion beautiful molecular geniuses that make up my form, and one with all that is.
Or I can choose to step into the consciousness of my left hemisphere, where I become a single individual, a solid separate form the flow, separate from you. I am Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, intellectual, neuroanatomist.
These are the “we” inside of me.
Which would you choose?
Which do you choose?
And when?
I believe that the more time we spend choosing to run the deep inner peace circuitry of our right hemispheres, the more peace we will project into the world, and the more peaceful our planet will be.”
I would love for you to share your thoughts and experiences of times in which you stepped into the consciousness of your right hemisphere.
Blessings on your way🙏
