JILL BOLTE TAYLOR - NEUROANATOMIST

JILL BOLTE TAYLOR - HOLDING A BRAIN! I highly recommend you watch the clip of Jill Bolte Taylor talking about her stroke. Jill had the opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: one morning, she realised she was having a massive stroke. She tells us: “Oh my gosh, I’m having a stroke! I’m having a stroke! And in the next instant, the thought flashed through my mind, this is so cool!” Jill felt that she had reach Nirvana!

“When the shower droplets beat into my chest like little bullets, I was harshly startled back into...reality,” she writes of that first morning. “As I held my hands up in front of my face and wiggled my fingers, I was simultaneously perplexed and intrigued.

“Wow, what a strange and amazing thing I am. What a bizarre living being I am. Life! I am life! I am a sea of water bound inside this membranous pouch. Here, in this form, I am a conscious mind and this body is the vehicle through which I am ALIVE! I am trillions of cells sharing a common mind. I am here, now, thriving as life. Wow! What an unfathomable concept! I am cellular life, no — I am molecular life with manual dexterity and a cognitive mind!”

She has also written a book about this experience:

Jill says: What an honor it has been to be chosen as one of <a title="Read about Jill in TIME Magazine!" href="http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/article/0,28804,1733748_1733754_1735155,00.html" target="_blank">TIME Magazine's 100 Most Influential in the World for 2008</a>!    This all came about because I was invited to give an 18-minute presentation at the <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/229" target="_blank">TED</a> conference in  Monterey, CA on February 27, 2008. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design - three wide-ranging subject areas that are, collectively, shaping our future. Every year, 1300 of the world's leading thinkers and doers gather together for four days of networking, education and exposure to new ideas. Past speakers and performers have included Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Paul Simon, Richard Branson, Frank Gehry, Philippe Starck, James Watson, Billy Graham, Jane Goodall, Al Gore, and Bono. However, TED is about much more than famous names. It is about passion, laughter, beauty, and ingenuity. It is about ideas capable of changing the world, and I was given 18 minutes to share my personal story and an idea that I believed was worth spreading. My experience at TED2008 was both phenomenal and life transforming, and I also enjoyed my time at TED2009. See for yourself by visiting <a href= "http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/229" target="_blank">www.TED.com</a>.    As an "Advocate for Humanity," Dr. Jill is a compassionate motivational speaker who speaks from her heart, both as a well sibling of a brother who has been diagnosed with the brain disorder schizophrenia and as a survivor of a debilitating stroke (AVM) which initially rendered her completely disabled.  Dr. Jill has dedicated her career to the advancement of postmortem research into the human brain and to the education of the public about the fragile, yet resilient, nature of this incredible organ. By sharing her science and her unique personal journey, she communicates a message of hope, education, and celebration.      Presentation topics include:   - "My Stroke of Insight" with a focus on Dr. Jill's personal story: why she grew up to study the brain, her research activities, and her own brain disorder.    -         "How to Get Your Brain To Do What You Want It To Do" with a focus on how to create a healthy environment for the cells inside our heads and how to communicate with them for optimal health and performance.  -           -         "Who's Who Inside of You?" with a focus on identifying the two very different personalities within each of our hemispheres with an intention of developing our ability to choose, moment by moment, who and how we want to be in the world.  -         "How to Capitalize On Our Two Hemispheres" with a focus on the talents and skills of each of our hemispheres and how to develop them.   -         "Ninety Seconds to Happiness" with a focus on understanding how the choices we make and the thoughts we think directly influence our level of joy.    <a href="index.html">HOME</a>
