Ooh! Ooh! I've read that. I thought it was definitely cool. Even H read it after I did because he decided he was curious to know what recovering from a stroke was like. I think he enjoyed it too. It's been about a year and to be honest I don't remember it all that well, but I do remember liking it.

She has a Ted talk too, have you seen it?

Just finished reading it.
Thanks for the recommendation Liese. I found it fascinating.

Hi Starlight,

Did you find any parallels with what you are going through personally and in therapy?

Hi Liese,
I realised from this book that I am very strongly left brained. Her discription of the continuous stories coming from the left brain fits me so well. I suppose what I am doing in therapy is trying to develope my right brain and allow myself to feel more and be here in the present, not lost in the past or worrying about the future.
What really hit me was the idea that the joy and fullfillment is there all the time in the right brain, but is often overpowered by the left brain, it is just a question of readjusting the balance.
I love to read anything on this kind of subject. It is great with my Kindle that I can get it immediatly and dig straight in!
