One Medical Doctors Experience Having a Stroke
This neuroanatomist did recover from her stroke and has written a book and done a video which is a tremendously insightful description of how we think and process the world around around us. Don't miss this! There is HOPE.
I am interested because I'm Buddhist and it illustrates what happens in the brain of meditators as well. Fascinating! Great insights. And an encouragement for the families of stroke sufferers.
She has written a book and done a video on strokes.
Through the eyes of this curious scientist, she descibes how she watched her mind deteriorate. She observes while she is unable not walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. Because of her understanding of the brain, her respect for the cells in her body, and an amazing mother, Jill completely recovered. Can you imagine trying to call for help and being unable to dial the phone or talk?
In My Stroke of Insight, she shares her recommendations for recovery and the insight she gained into the unique functions of the two halves of her brain. When she lost the skills of her left brain, her consciousness shifted away from normal reality where she felt "at one with the universe." Taylor helps others not only rebuild their brains from trauma, but helps those of us with normal brains better understand how we can consciously influence the neural circuitry underlying what we think, how we feel and how we react to life's circumstances. How empowering.

Brain Power and Clarity - Great for Clear Thinking
The blend called Brain Power promotes deep concentration and channels physical energy into mental energy. It also increases mental potential and clarity, and long-term use may retard the aging process. This blend contains frankincense, sandalwood, melissa, cedarwood, blue cypress, lavender, and helichrysum. They enhance awareness and cognition. Many of the oils in this blend are high in sesquiterpene compounds that increase activity in the pineal, pituitary, and hypothalamus glands and thereby increase output of growth hormone and melatonin. The oils also help dissolve petrochemicals that plug the receptor sites, clearing the brain fog that people experience due to exposure to synthetic petrochemicals in food, skin and hair care products, and air.Another blend I want to suggest is Clarity which promotes a clear mind and amplifies mental alertness. Improves mental activity and vitality, and increases energy when overly tired. Ingredients: cardamom, rosemary, peppermint, basil, bergamot, geranium, jasmine, lemon, palmarosa, roman chamomile, rosewood, and ylang ylang.

A Very Similar Success Story You Might Enjoy As Well
From Tragedy to Triumph: Journey Back From The Edge
Amazon Price: $15.98 (as of 02/16/2012)
This is a truly remarkable story about Jessica Taylor, a young businesswoman who migrated to Canada from Ireland and whose life was abruptly halted by a near fatal fall at work. As she struggles to recall memories of her life as a loving wife and mother of two beautiful, young daughters, she also wages an inner war with depression and despair. Her triumphant recovery against all odds has been the subject of media coverage including TV appearances. Jessica's book and campaign work has attracted interest of many prominent people, including Royalty. With brutal honesty, she pens a series of tragic events, culminating in one of the longest court battles in Canadian history, exposing a legal system fraught with collusion and fraud. Written without self-pity, Jessica injects her narrative with wit, insight, spirituality and her own brand of hilarity. Unforgettable, all-too-human, she is a shining example of the potent force of doggedness and determination.
