Jill Bolte Taylor: Mi fuerte derrame cerebral de lucidez

Mi fuerte derrame cerebral de lucidez

Jill Bolte Taylor tuvo  una oportunidad muy poco común de investigar para los científicos dedicados al estudio del cerebro: tuvo un derrame cerebral y pudo observar cómo se interrumpían, una por una, las funciones de su cerebro; el movimiento, el habla, la conciencia. Una historia asombrosa.

After a severe stroke disabled the left side of her brain, a neuroscientist experienced firsthand the split between analytical thought and present-moment awareness. In four hours, she lost motion, speech, and even her sense of self, describing a profound feeling of unity and peace from her right hemisphere. Her recovery took eight years, but the insight remained: humans can consciously choose which side of the brain to engage, unlocking deep inner peace and connection. This story turns a medical crisis into a lesson about the power of present-moment consciousness.
