Ep. 5: Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor: How to Use 100% of Your Brain's Power
“When our limbic system anxiety circuit is triggered, we are neuroanatomically cut off from accessing our higher cortical thinking centers, which is where our learned knowledge is stored.” – Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor
In 1996, Harvard-trained Neuroanatomist, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain. On the afternoon of this rare stroke (AVM), she could not walk, talk, read, write or
recall any of her life.
In the grueling 8-year recovery process, Dr. Taylor
uncovered one of the most profound neurological discoveries of our time.
We have all heard that we are only able to use a small
fraction of our brain’s true power, but Dr. Taylor has committed her life to showing you how you can use ALL of it...or as she calls it, “Whole Brain Living.”
Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor was named one of TIME Magazine’s Most Influential People in the World in 2008, she highlighted the first ever TED conference with her TED Talk “My Stroke of Insight” which has recorded over 8 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube and she was a premiere guest on Oprah’s Soul Series.
She is the author of two best-selling books and the #1 book
on strokes on Amazon.
