Analysis helps patients put their unconscious procedural memories and actions into words and into context, so they can better understand them. In the process they plastically retranscribe these procedural memories, so that they become conscious explicit memories, sometimes for the first time, and patients no longer need to "relive" or "reenact" them, especially if they were traumatic. (229-230) ~ Norman Doidge
Brain Plasticity quotes by Norman Doidge
Nothing speeds brain atrophy more than being immobilized in the same environment: the monotony undermines our dopamine and attentional systems crucial to our brain plasticity. ~ Norman Doidge
Brain Plasticity quotes by Norman Doidge
Your brain loves habits because they are simple, structured, well-known, energy efficient, quick, and automatic. ~ Stan Jacobs
Brain Plasticity quotes by Stan Jacobs
Complex training environments such as action video game play may actually foster brain plasticity and learning. ~ Barbara Oakley
Brain Plasticity quotes by Barbara Oakley
There are millions of neurons in the brain. Humming Om chanting create resonance patterns between different brain regions that foster subsequent long-term plasticity changes in the brain. ~ Amit Ray
Brain Plasticity quotes by Amit Ray
It's weird and terrible, just fucking terrible to be looking at him. It's almost like I convinced myself he didn't exist, after... after what happened, and all of a sudden its like, here he is, in the flesh, he's still a flesh-type creature that exists, and its flesh that's been in contact with my flesh. I wish I would stop thinking the word 'flesh'. You know what's a gross creepy, weird word? 'Flesh'. I think my brain is melting. I think I'm having a stroke. ~ Hannah Johnson
Brain Plasticity quotes by Hannah  Johnson
Common to the many theories about the birth trauma is the assumption that the feelings produced by this event were recorded and reside in some form in the brain. This assumption is supported by the great number of repetitious dreams of the "drainage pipe" variety ~ Thomas A. Harris
Brain Plasticity quotes by Thomas A. Harris
And dieting, I discovered, was another form of disordered eating, just as anorexia and bulimia similarly disrupt the natural order of eating. "Ordered" eating is the practice of eating when you are hungry and ceasing to eat when your brain sends the signal that your stomach is full ... All people who live their lives on a diet are suffering. If you can accept your natural body weight and not force it to beneath your body's natural, healthy weight, then you can live your life free of dieting, of restriction, of feeling guilty every time you eat a slice of your kid's birthday cake. ~ Portia De Rossi
Brain Plasticity quotes by Portia De Rossi
Hunger never being fed makes cracks in the brain. ~ The Paper Doll
Brain Plasticity quotes by The Paper Doll
The idea of whole brain emulation - which was, in effect, the liberation from matter, from the physical world - seemed to me an extreme example of the way in which science, or the belief in scientific progress, was replacing religion as the vector of deep cultural desires and delusions. ~ Mark O'Connell
Brain Plasticity quotes by Mark O'Connell
Throw out old clothes and shoes, and train your brain to get rid of old thoughts and ideas. ~ Karen Salmansohn
Brain Plasticity quotes by Karen Salmansohn
I have late onset ADHD. I take on too much and end up spinning plates, but it's entertaining, and it helps you make quick connections if you're a comedian, if you have a brain that can dance around too much. ~ Rory Bremner
Brain Plasticity quotes by Rory Bremner
I detest jokes - when somebody tells me one, I feel my IQ dropping; the brain cells start to disappear. But something is funny when the person delivering the line doesn't know it's funny or doesn't treat it as a joke. Maybe it comes from a place of truth, or it's a sort of rage against society. ~ Johnny Depp
Brain Plasticity quotes by Johnny Depp
Unicorns practically breathed magic. He was to a horse what a horse was to a pig. Four tiny cloven hooves shone like burnished silver, slender legs as graceful as an antelope's led to a slender body, a delicate neck with an arch like the stem of a lily-blossom and a head like the blossom itself, crowned with that glorious pearly horn. And the eyes- big golden-brown eyes you could fall into and never come out of-
'It's a male Unicorn, Andie.' Her brain prompted her with that information. 'Male Unicorns are attracted to female virgins, female Unicorns are attracted to male virgins. ~ Mercedes Lackey
Brain Plasticity quotes by Mercedes Lackey
You're here covering the murders, bad girl," Jackie continued. "Adora must hate that. Sleeping in her house with your dirty little brain. ( ... ) Course before Adora took it over, we all slept over at Joya's house with our dirty little brains. Same house, different crazy lady running it. ~ Gillian Flynn
Brain Plasticity quotes by Gillian Flynn
I was sure that if I could just scale this fortress I would reach a height with a sunny blue sky and fresh air. I would stand there and experience myself as redeemable rather than ruined. I had no idea what kind of animal I was facing.
If you had suggested to me at the time that my problems were due to some faulty wiring, some chemistry experiment gone wrong in my brain, I'd have said you were suggesting that I not take responsibility for my own choices. Now I know I was wrong. Now when I'm haunted by the specter of depression, I recognize it for what it is. I don't systematically dismantle my life every time depression pops out from behind a tree. But at that time, I was sure it was fixable if the world would just change faster, or if I would. ~ Jillian Lauren
Brain Plasticity quotes by Jillian Lauren
My brain refused to move past the pain, as if it had been filled to the max and needed to be emptied. ~ Sue Whitaker
Brain Plasticity quotes by Sue Whitaker
One of the strangest things about writing well is that it requires two different zones in the brain
rigor and recklessness
simultaneously. ~ Carole Maso
Brain Plasticity quotes by Carole Maso
I think when you sit alone with your brain too much, your own brain starts to rebel against you. ~ Christopher Titus
Brain Plasticity quotes by Christopher Titus
My books are my brain and my heart made visible. ~ Merilyn Simonds
Brain Plasticity quotes by Merilyn Simonds
The analogy between the mind and a computer fails for many reasons. The brain is constructed by principles that assure diversity and degeneracy. Unlike a computer, it has no replicative memory. It is historical and value driven. It forms categories by internal criteria and by constraints acting at many scales, not by means of a syntactically constructed program. The world with which the brain interacts is not unequivocally made up of classical categories. ~ Gerald Edelman
Brain Plasticity quotes by Gerald Edelman
Female sexual turn on begins, ironically, with a brain turn off. The impulses can rush to the pleasure centers and trigger orgasm only if the amygdala- the fear and anxiety center of the brain- has been deactivated.
The fact that a woman requires this extra neurological step may account for why it takes her on average three to ten times longer than the typical man to reach orgasm. ~ Louann Brizendine
Brain Plasticity quotes by Louann Brizendine
I've been obsessed with stopping people from blowing each other's brains out since I was ten. ~ Joan Baez
Brain Plasticity quotes by Joan Baez
I didn't tell him that I'd put his awful stories in boxes and stacked them on a shelf at the back of my mind. I could hear a quieter version of them still, from their dark place, through all the other business that occupied my brain, but I wouldn't unlid those boxes until I was ready to hear [his] stories again as they wanted to be heard. ~ Lauren Wolk
Brain Plasticity quotes by Lauren Wolk
The brain is the only organ that tries to make sense of its pain. It is as if the bone were trying to understand the break, as if the blood vessel could comprehend its rupture. But this is also its greatest impediment to understanding. The mind clings fiercely to any alternative to chaos, even if that alternative is self-destruction. ~ Tracy Thompson
Brain Plasticity quotes by Tracy Thompson
Love me, Kat.
The words repeated in his brain like a song he was unable to find the end of.
I've loved ye since I dipped your braid in that wax. Dinna fret about making a child. Let me be enough for ye. Ye're enough for me. ~ Mia Marlowe
Brain Plasticity quotes by Mia Marlowe
There was a dense fog in my brain,impenetrable to any coherent thought,except the dull obsession of counting the minutes - an aching state of semi concsiousness and numb idiocy. ~ Arthur Koestler
Brain Plasticity quotes by Arthur Koestler
Women with a higher intake of berries appeared to have delayed cognitive aging by 2.5 years. So it's like your brain is 2.5 years younger if you're eating berries. ~ Michael Greger
Brain Plasticity quotes by Michael Greger
Weyler, the brute, the devastator of haciendas, and the outrager of women . . . is pitiless, cold, an exterminator of men," ran one such account. "There is nothing to prevent his carnal, animal brain from running riot with itself in inventing tortures and infamies of bloody debauchery. ~ Stephen Kinzer
Brain Plasticity quotes by Stephen Kinzer
I don't want my body to be a distraction from my talent or my brain. ~ Shania Twain
Brain Plasticity quotes by Shania Twain
When scientists get old, they get interested in the brain, and I'm a little bit afraid I'm falling into that. ~ Elizabeth Blackburn
Brain Plasticity quotes by Elizabeth Blackburn
He kept trying to come up with words to say, but his brain and mouth were having a disconnect. So he crashed his mouth down over hers. She made a little gasp noise, and he took advantage, deepening the kiss, taking her stolen breath in and letting himself get lost in the feel of her soft lips, the familiar taste of her tongue.
He was half tempted to take her right here in the back of the truck, despite all the people nearby
the horse trailer mostly hid them, after all.
There was a small whispering in the back of his mind that they were gonna make a mess of things, but with her draping her legs across his lap and her nails running over his back, he couldn't help thinking that
Well, actually it was more like he couldn't actually think at all. ~ Cindi Madsen
Brain Plasticity quotes by Cindi Madsen
This is not science fiction. Around the world, 50,000 men with prostate cancer have been treated with focused ultrasound. Over 22,000 women with uterine fibroids (benign tumors of the uterus) have been treated, thus avoiding hysterectomies and infertility. Clinical trials for tumors of the brain, breast, pancreas and liver, as well as Parkinson's disease, arthritis, and hypertension are inching forward at over 225 research sites around the world. ~ John Grisham
Brain Plasticity quotes by John Grisham
Did any great genius ever enter the world in the wake of commonplace pre-natal conditions? Was a maker of history ever born amidst the pleasant harmonies of a satisfied domesticity? Of a mother who was less than remarkable, although she may have escaped being great? Did a woman with no wildness in her blood ever inform a brain with electric fire? The students of history know that while many mothers of great men have been virtuous, none have been commonplace, and few have been happy. ~ Gertrude Atherton
Brain Plasticity quotes by Gertrude Atherton
A rather insistent cross-examiner asks a pathologist whether he can be absolutely sure that a certain patient was dead before he began the autopsy. The pathologist says he's absolutely certain. Oh, but how can you be so sure? Because, the pathologist says, his brain was in a jar sitting on my desk. But, says the cross-examiner, could the patient still have been alive nevertheless? Well, comes the answer, it's possible he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere. ~ Ian McEwan
Brain Plasticity quotes by Ian McEwan
Those men who on the off-chance happened to be taller than her often had some genetic species-survival switch tripped in their brain that made them crave women on the opposite end of the height spectrum, to balance out the gene pool. ~ Sara King
Brain Plasticity quotes by Sara King
In Hyderabad/South of India there is a very good saying:
"Nakkal ko bhi Akal Hoona!" - Even Cheating needs brain ~ Anonymous
Brain Plasticity quotes by Anonymous
Fear-bola attacks the part of the brain responsible for rational thinking. It starts with a low-grade concern about the two health care workers diagnosed with Ebola in Dallas and slowly builds into fear of a widespread epidemic in the United States. ~ Mel Robbins
Brain Plasticity quotes by Mel Robbins
Television's perfect. You turn a few knobs, a few of those mechanical adjustments at which the higher apes are so proficient, and lean back and drain your mind of all thought. And there you are watching the bubbles in the primeval ooze. You don't have to concentrate. You don't have to react. You don't have to remember. You don't miss your brain because you don't need it. Your heart and liver and lungs continue to function normally. Apart from that, all is peace and quiet. You are in the man's nirvana. And if some poor nasty minded person comes along and says you look like a fly on a can of garbage, pay him no mind. He probably hasn't got the price of a television set. ~ Raymond Chandler
Brain Plasticity quotes by Raymond Chandler
There is no doubt that right-hemisphere intuitive thinking may perceive patterns and connections too difficult for the left hemisphere; but it may also detect patterns where none exist. Skeptical and
critical thinking is not a hallmark of the right hemisphere. And unalloyed right-hemisphere doctrines, particularly when they are invented during new and trying circumstances, may be erroneous or paranoid. ~ Carl Sagan
Brain Plasticity quotes by Carl Sagan
Robert Heinlein says in Have Spacesuit, Will Travel that the only things worth studying are history, languages, and science. Actually, he adds maths, but honestly they left out the mathematical part of my brain. ~ Jo Walton
Brain Plasticity quotes by Jo Walton
How do I know that? Does my brain have an app for that? ~ Robin Sloan
Brain Plasticity quotes by Robin Sloan
My brain doesn't work very well, in terms of mathematics. I'm not one of those people who can just spout off numbers for things, if numbers are thrown at me. ~ Brit Marling
Brain Plasticity quotes by Brit Marling
If whatever follows these two words is not fully aligned with your perception of how the creative Source of the universe would be speaking, then make the correction on the spot. Say to yourself "I am the resurrection and the life in thought and feeling." According to The "I AM" Discourses of Saint Germain: "It immediately turns all the energy of your Being to the center in the brain which is the source of your Being. You cannot overestimate the Power in this Statement. There is no limit to what you can do with it. It was the Statement that Jesus used most ~ Wayne W. Dyer
Brain Plasticity quotes by Wayne W. Dyer
The Bat that flits at close of Eve
Has left the Brain that won't believe.
The Owl that calls upon the Night
Speaks the Unbeliever's fright. ~ William Blake
Brain Plasticity quotes by William Blake
Asana and complementary services are bringing the evolved team brain to the entire world. In great companies like Twitter, Uber, Airbnb, Foursquare, and LinkedIn, people already add information to and extract insight from these systems much the same way our hands and brain exchange signals. ~ Justin Rosenstein
Brain Plasticity quotes by Justin Rosenstein
If you have just an emotion, you would not necessarily feel it. To feel an emotion, you need to represent in the brain in structures that are actually different from the structures that lead to the emotion, what is going on in the organs when you're having the emotion. ~ Antonio Damasio
Brain Plasticity quotes by Antonio Damasio
Every brain is civilized, Every nerve is analyzed, Everything is criticized when you are in need. ~ Bob Dylan
Brain Plasticity quotes by Bob Dylan
Suddenly it was if she was merely a brain, being transported inside the skull of some hideous fleshy machine, a piece of living cargo in someone else's body. ~ Chris Wooding
Brain Plasticity quotes by Chris Wooding
Priming works best when you are on autopilot, when you aren't trying to consciously introspect before choosing how to behave. When you are unsure how best to proceed, suggestions bubble up from the deep that are highly tainted by subconscious primes. In addition, your brain hates ambiguity and is willing to take shortcuts to remove it from any situation. If there is nothing else to go on, you will use what is available. When pattern recognition fails, you create patterns of your own. In the aforementioned experiments, there was nothing else for the brain to base its unconscious attitudes on, so it focused on the business items or the clean smells and ran with the ideas. The only problem was the conscious minds of the subjects didn't notice. ~ David McRaney
Brain Plasticity quotes by David McRaney
The camera is not only an extension of the eye but of the brain. It can see sharper, farther, nearer, slower, faster than the eye. It can see by invisible light. It can see in the past, present, and future. Instead of using the camera only to reproduce objects, I wanted to use it to make what is invisible to the eye - visible. ~ Wynn Bullock
Brain Plasticity quotes by Wynn Bullock
