Jill Bolt Taylor is a great woman with an awesome power of life. She tells us about her experiences while a stroke – and she tells it so pictured that every one can understand it – and we also receive an understanding about what the old wises all over the world tried to tell us. And I once more understood the importance to think with both halfes of the brain – what the old wises called “to be in the middle”.

I like the show and she’s remarkably articulate.

I can’t help but wonder, as I see this again, if she’s repeating scientific behavior patterns, very analytical and logical in the narrative process, forgetting that her experience could send her into new worlds of artistic endeavor.

Her work and stories may help me and watchers/readers, more than it helps her.

Wow, this was amazing. Thanks so much for sharing this and the TED network too. The mind is such an amazing thing…and I learned so much. At first I thought, geez – 20 minutes? But when I started watching this I couldn’t stop and it was well worth it!

Jill Bolte Taylor has changed the way I think about strokes. She articulates the experience so beautifully. I love how she describes the feeling of being liberated from her analytical mind, becoming so expansive that when she looked at her body she wondered how she would fit back into such a small shell.

Thank you for posting this – it is such a good reminder that I don’t have to be scared of losing my mind…in fact losing it may do me a lot of good
