When One Scientist's Stroke Becomes A Gift To The World

Jill Bolte Taylor holding a real brain.jpgAbout three months ago, I found myself in a Unity Church bookstore. The welcoming stewardess showed me the books I could have for free and the ones I might like to buy. 

One thing led to the other. We started talking about spirituality, lucid dreaming and how the brain works. 

She asked me if I've watched Jill Bolte Taylor's video presentation online. 

 "Who is Jill Bolte Taylor?" I asked. The church administrator told me about Jill's web site.

Two weeks ago, I received an email from a friend who lives in Spokane. Have you watched "Jill Bolte Taylor's video yet?" She asked, as she provided a link to access it.

Have you watched Jill Taylor's video yet? Jill is a neuroanatomist who had a stroke and survived to talk about it.

Oh my Goodness: As I write this at 4 am PDT, I went online to do my final research to complete this blog. And here's what I found out: Oprah is having Jill Bolte Taylor on her webcast. Tonight! And Jill Bolte Taylor has a book that is coming out....You guess it: Today!

 Here are some links where you, too, can get connected to the flow:

This woman is awesome. I have shared her story with others and already one person came up to me and thanked me for sending it to her. She is an inspiration scientifically and spiritually.
