    This was so emotionally moving. Ive seen this before but for some reason this time it was speaking directly to ME and my heart. I will take this information through out my day and no matter what comes, I will remember Jills words, and whats really important. That we are ALL ONE. We have a choice to engage in that blissful right hemisphere where peace dwells. Beautiful!

    @LFLvideos 12 лет назад +23

    That was so moving, really made an impact on me. "Information in the form of energy streams in simultanously through all of our sensory systems in the form of energy and then it explodes into this enormours collage of what this present moment looks like, what it tastes like, what it feels like, what it looks like and what it sounds like... In this moment we are perfect, we are whole and we are beautiful." Wow.

    What incredible insight. I am a 12 year stroke survivor and I had virtually NO awareness of what was happening to me, I'm thankful that Mother-in -law knew the signs. I had an experience also, but it was not quite the same. Kudos Jill!

    Even tho this video was 11 yrs ago, I sure hope Jill receives this comment…the stroke IS what gave you the gift you are (or were then) telling people they can ‘choose’. This simply is not the case. We can’t ‘choose’ to live from the right hemisphere of our brain whenever we want to, anymore than you chose to have that stroke. It was what happened. And as difficult as it was, WOW are you blessed!

    this was the most insperational video. i have been trying to explain to many people the method that i use to remain so eternaly happy but still able to function in "reality" i understood every bit of it and can relate. i have been able to flip the switch between my "personalities" for year though nvr able to explain it. i choose who i will be on a momentary bases and yes it is so much nicer, enjoyable, and peaceful when i am able to be just one. i hope that u are able to inspier more lifes.

    So inspiring. It answers questions I have pondered for 44 years. It tweaks knowledge already in the public domain. It would seem that that there is a left brain Ego based on thought that leaves us isolated and alone and a right brained based on feeling and consciousness where the ego is part of ever increasing circles. This knowledge has relevence to therapies religon sport and science. In team sport we are seperate and yet very united to the other players and the ball.

    Yes. The annotation at 00:22 links to a blog post with a thorough explanation. Key points: 1) Talks added have been identified by students/teachers as awesome/useful in regards to learning & 2) each Talk is accompanied by a new, "flippable" Lesson on the TED-Ed website (can view via annotation @ 00:10). Our intention is to save a student or teacher some time by curating the best, most relevant Talks. We'll still be adding four (or more) animator + educator videos a week!

  • @thecaveoawesomeness
    @thecaveoawesomeness 12 лет назад +1

    While it was a bit overly spiritual for my taste it was still very moving. Those who say they learned nothing from this video misunderstand TEDs purpose of giving insight and perspective in to the world we live in and to make us think.

    I remember my ex-wife telling me something about this lady feeling every part of her existence and how the computations were being made to compute the manner in which her body should move....I think she was in her bathtub when she got the stroke...and she was able to feel all the computations her mind were making to decide which way to move.....
    I just felt this a while back today.....more like an adrenaline rush, a pleasurable feeling, or something enjoyable while a fast speeding set of computations passed by me.......
    I could be wrong....I don't think I'm in the risk of a stroke....I hope no one related to me is....if I had to guess who is in danger of a stroke, then my guess would be my ex-wife......
    Oh yeah, we are tired of holding all the pain....we are passing it all back....our journey is over...we are just existing.....☺

    I’m 23 and just had 3 strokes last month. They still don’t know eBay caused the clots so I’m afraid I’ll have more but this is exactly what it felt/feels like. I had symptoms switch from one side of my body to the other. Things were abnormal I guess to my strokes as well as me being so young with no family history related. If anyone has ideas, lmk. We’ve tested all the common causes so are trying to see if it’s something like a rare disease now I guess.
    I’m scared of leaving my body and my mind again. Life is beautiful and I want to stay. The pain is worth it for the good moments.

  • @imagardner4892
    @imagardner4892 11 лет назад +5

    Ms Taylor represents the difficulty of explaining non verbal experiences in verbal terms. It sounds nuts. Her experience parallels that of others who have mystical/transcendent experiences, whether it be, for example, religious ecstasy, near death experiences, drug induced "trips", etc. The symbolic "language" we identify with in artists, musicians, mystics, in our dreams, etc., are attempts to transmit/channel the reality of what usually remains unconscious.

    She reminds me of a neurology professor my father had in college who had terrible vertigo. He didn't treat it because he thought the impact it had on the brain was "fascinating to experience." I feel like telling her... LADY, STOP ENJOYING YOUR STROKE! GO TO THE HOSPITAL!!!!

  • @leonwong2391
    @leonwong2391 9 лет назад +2

    8:30 She says that she feels like her energy is expanding and how it is getting bigger and bigger and reach out larger. I am no druggie, straight edge, not a moment of my life is delusional from substances. But I have always had this feeling of expanding every since I am a kid, now I wonder if there is something wrong with my left cerebral hemisphere.. Because I had that feeling, to me its not energy thats expanding, it is my body being stressed out to size of galaxy.

    • @supernova6521
      @supernova6521 9 лет назад +1

      +Leon Wong Me too. Usually it's my hands that seem to be changing in size, usually when I am lying in bed. I don't think there is anything wrong, I think it is because parts of my brain are falling asleep (maybe the same parts where she had her injury) while other parts are still awake to watch.

    • @leonwong2391
      @leonwong2391 9 лет назад

      +Super Nova Yep, in bed, lying down, ready to sleep. I woke up because I felt I was expanding somehow. You sound right, I can not think of a time where I felt it while being awake, isn't that weird that we feel like this way? huh

    • @supernova6521
      @supernova6521 9 лет назад +1

      +Leon Wong You can train yourself to stay in that in-between state, but it takes some practice because you have to pay attention but also keep your mind relaxed. That trance state is related to hypnosis and astral travel, and maybe lucid dreaming.

    • @Stevenstallone
      @Stevenstallone 8 лет назад +1

      +Leon Wong Don't worry about it. It's something often felt in transcendental meditation. Lose awareness off the body but feel very expansive, very wide, and it feels very familiar.

    @amauryvanrorne 8 лет назад +2

    Awesome!!! Religious people should see this video to understand that their "visions" are problems between connections of both brain hemispheres. The coolest thing about Jill is that she had that experience totally conscious about whats happening. if a dogmatic person without any knowledge in neuroscience pass for the same experience, this person will think: "Oh! I saw god" ... or things like this.

  • @Kansyn
    @Kansyn 12 лет назад

    17:22-17:47. I would choose me and not one of the Wes. You dont have to pick sides with your brain. You dont have to either use your left hemisphere or your right hemisphere. People should use both. And most end up using both in equilibrium. Even if you spend a lot of time exercising your left hemisphere, you only do so because your right hemisphere will be repayed by fulfillment and sense of accomplishment. Problem is, the people who dont use the right usually have a lot of power in the world.

I read that these synthetics could open all the neurological paths and rewrite some blocked paths on yoru brain, like a snowfall :D a bit o f reset.

    @worldbosspf1 12 лет назад +1

    Yh you bet if you put all your faith in God and trust him to heal, he would. I am not say that doctors can heal people but all I am saying is that it was as if she was avoid to give God thanks for the knowledge and skill that he have empowered in to the doctors. All I am saying is that you should give God thanks in everything you do or he have done for you because she could have been dead. It was only the mercy and grace of God that saved her.
