I am brainy, but also very present and emotional.<\/p>\n

\n

But what happens if a part of my brain simply stops working?
\nWhat do I think or feel then?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I am extremely curious about how our brain works. Learning about it forms my bigger picture of life and how you and I respond to its challenges.<\/p>\n

Jill Taylor – a Harvard neuro-scientist – experienced herself how it feels when one part of your brain stops working due to a stroke.
\nIn this\u00a0TED Conferences Talk<\/a><\/strong> she beautifully paints you a picture of how your brain thinks and feels.<\/p>\n

She especially relates to your left brain hemisphere. Why is that crucial for you?<\/p>\n

It is running all your mind chattering. Most of it is fueled by negative emotions, connected to your mental-list, stress, or anxiety.<\/p>\n

\n

This left brain hemisphere is the home of your mental self-sabotage.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is where your negative mind chatter starts – e.g. by<\/p>\n

~ constantly judging yourself or others,
\n~ controlling others as you feel the urge for it,
\n~ feeling restless looking out for the next best thing,
\n~ avoiding heavy tasks or conversations as it doesn’t feel pleasant,
\n~ pleasing others and not knowing how to set boundaries.<\/p>\n

\n

This left brain hemisphere is your starting point to shift from a negative experience into a positive opportunity.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

~ Here you turn a fight with your spouse into an opportunity to grow your healthy relationship.
\n~ Here you anchor a mistake at work to learn more about your client’s needs.
\n~ Here you shift from self-pity into self-love, growing your contentment.<\/p>\n

\n

Which mind chatter would you wish to quiet?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
