“The healthiest way I know how to move through an emotion effectively is to surrender completely to that emotion when its loop of physiology comes over me. I simply resign to the loop and let it run its course for 90 seconds. Just like children, emotions heal when they are heard and validated. Over time, the intensity and frequency of these circuits usually abate. ...Paying attention to which array of circuits we are concurrently running provides us with tremendous insight into how our minds are fundamentally wired...”

Jill Bolte Taylor is a neuroscientist, author, and public speaker, renowned for her unique personal experience and profound insights into the workings of the brain. In 2001, she experienced a remarkable stroke that damaged her left brain (responsible for language, logic, and emotion) while leaving her right brain (responsible for intuition and creativity) intact. This experience inspired her book 'My Left Brain Died: A Neuroscientist's Personal Stroke Journey,' which became an international bestseller and won multiple awards. Taylor's work not only helps people better understand the brain but also encourages them to explore their own inner intuition and creativity. more
