Nirvana and the Right Side of the Brain

 

This amazing show features Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, the author of My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey. Dr. Taylor is a Neuroanatomist affiliated with the Indiana University School of Medicine. She is the national spokesperson for the mentally ill at the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center. And since 1993 she has been an active member of the National Alliance on Mental Illness.

In this show, Dr. Taylor takes us through her unique journey as a neuroanatomist having a stroke and being able to consciously observe what was happening to her. She shares how the damaged left side on her brain, the rational, logical detail and time oriented side swung in and out of function, while the euphoric Nirvana of the intuitive and emotional right side of the brain took over and brought with it a sense of complete well being, inner peace and oneness with the universe. Dr. Taylor also shares what it took to completely recover, repair her mind and recalibrate her understanding of the world according to the insights she gained.

Heart Intelligence

 

This Podcast features an interview with Deborah Rozman, Ph.D and co-author of Transforming Stress. Dr. Rozman is president and co-CEO of Quantum Intech, and she serves on the Institue of HearMath’s scientific advisory board and Physics of Humanity council.

Transforming Stress is a small book with a big message about how our state of heart influences brain function.

Discussion points include:

  • New discoveries about the intuitive capacity of the heart.
  • How the heart is also a brain with 40,000 sensory neurons that process, store and pick up information.
  • How the heart is more like the Central Operating System and the Cranial Brain function is more like a memory system and digital readout.
  • And how to transform stress by cultivating coherent heart waves, associated with feelings of gratitude, appreciation and love.

Kelly chats with Deborah Rozman about the amazing intelligence of your heart and your ability to reboot your human operating system. Although scientists focus on the intelligence of the human brain, it seems that your brain is a minor player: your heart is the controller. Deborah says that in computer terms, your heart is the mainframe (the actual computer), while your brain is just the digital readout. Your heart and brain have a two-way communication, and a study recently revealed an even more astounding insight: your heart has access to information which is not bounded by time and space. Therefore, you can depend on your heart’s intuition: its sound.

This is a wonderful conversation, in which Deborah explains how to transform your stress with the power of your heart. Even having an intention to care for yourself can boost your health, and feelings of kindness can bring about a coherent heart rate.

Healthy Grieving

 

If you are dealing with the loss of a friend or loved one, the loss of a job, your health, or the loss of anything you valued, this podcast addresses the symptoms of grief and how to move through the process in a healthy, positive way.

I recently lost two people I loved this year, within only a few months of each other. Before I had a chance to recover from the first loss–my beloved father-in-law, the second one loomed heavily–my step mom of 30 years died of pancreatic cancer. I meditated at her bedside as she passed. When she left her body, spirit passed through all our hearts in a wave of love. It is an experience I will cherish always.

As I observe myself through this process, I continue to discover gifts–gifts of life and gifts of death.

Here are personal notes from sessions with grief counselor, Joe Stinson, featured in this show. He can be reached for private phone sessions at: 650-757-1300

GRIEF
Affects endocrine system (glandular system) – “self regulation”

Symptoms:
1. Loss of memory.
2. Difficulty following thought processes.
3. “5 Senses” are diminished – can’t take in anymore, a kind of numbness.
4. Immune system compromised leaving one vulnerable to sickness.
5. Feelings of being overwhelmed – mood states oscillating between sadness, depression, apathy, and/or euphoria.
6. The simple tasks of life are overwhelming.

Suggestions:
1. Eat small meals throughout the day.
2. Avoid fruit juices, alcohol, and most sugars since the pancreas (endocrine system) is an important gland in processing loss.
3. Stay connected with family and loved ones.
4. Get plenty of rest.
5. If social, choose the “right company.”
6. Less is better.

Facts:
Grief is a normal, natural process of living. It always shows up in human behavior, and its physiological effects are akin to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Grief will naturally bring up other previous losses for the purpose of healing.

How does one move through the suffering into Healthy Grief?
Two Choices: (You can do both if you wish.)
1. Getting out what is inside of us that is uncomfortable to a non-judgmental person.
2. Getting it out on paper – journaling of thoughts, feelings, fantasies, images, anything.

Don’t be a “fix-it” person, i.e., don’t take away another’s suffering or try to make them okay! You can’t save another.

Key points to remember:

1. Truth – be willing to tell it and stay with it.
2. Trust – that by trusting your truth you will be guided appropriately.
3. Commitment – a commitment to be with your truth and trust yourself and the process.
