Thumbs up OT: from TED, amazingly powerful video of a stroke patient

This is an amazing story!!!
The link will bring you to the TED classroom, I think Mari (edited she did not)may have posted this before. It is a scientists story of her experiencing a stroke and ultimately nirvana and encourages us to use our right sides of our brains.


http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/j...f_insight.html


I started taking a drawing class and just started reading the book:
Drawing on the right side of the brain...I think it is going to be a great book.
anyone read it before or see the above video?

Dear Beth,

I don't think that an earlier link was from me. That stuff about brain injury kind of weirds me out -- sorry I could not watch the video.

I do remember the book Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. Years ago my mom l had a copy and later I had a copy -- not sure if I lost it in a move.
It is a good book about connecting to our unconscious mind.

Enjoy the drawing class.
M.

Trophy This is Fantastic!

Dear Beth,

i just watched this video presentation...

it was incredibly fascinating. i hope others will watch, too.


btw... no i don't know the book you mention... i will look it up it sounds interesting.

all my art (drawings, paintings) is abstract and so i kinda wonder if it isn't already coming "out of my right mind"

anyway thank you again for sharing the presentation.
