Sleep Improves (and Destroys) Memories

By Bonnie Prescott / Source: Harvard Science

As poets, songwriters and authors have described, our memories range from misty water-colored recollections to vividly detailed images of the times of our lives.

Now, a study led by Harvard researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and Boston College offers new insights into the specific components of emotional memories, suggesting that sleep plays a key role in determining what we remember – and what we forget.

Reported in the August 2008 issue of the journal Psychological Science, the findings show that a period of slumber helps the brain to selectively preserve and enhance those aspects of a memory that are of greatest emotional resonance, while at the same time diminishing the memory’s neutral background details.

“This tells us that sleep’s role in emotional memory preservation is more than just mechanistic,” says the study’s first author Jessica Payne, PhD, a Harvard University research fellow in the Division of Psychiatry at BIDMC. “In order to preserve what it deems most important, the brain makes a tradeoff, strengthening the memory’s emotional core and obscuring its neutral background.”

It’s a conversation between a guy from Australia who used to be a factory worker packing boxes all day long, and an extremely successful online entrepreneur named Frank Kern.

And that was just the beginning… Now he travels the entire world, following the sun, loving life, and doing what he wants all day long.

He met Frank in California, and here’s the surprising twist…
Frank, a good ole’ Georgia boy--who just happens to make gazillions online--totally believes in this too! In fact, he tells a story about how he accidentally started using the Law of Attraction with spectacular results (that’s how he ended up a Southern boy in California!)

I have a feeling some of his online buddies may be shocked when they see this:

Top 10 Amazing Facts About Dreams

Source: The List Universe

This afternoon I had a (very rare) nap. During that nap I had a lucid dream (most of which I no longer remember). As I was waking up, I was thinking about my dream and thought that it would be a great idea to write a list about dreams for the site. So, here are the top 10 amazing facts about dreams.


10. Blind People Dream


People who become blind after birth can see images in their dreams. People who are born blind do not see any images, but have dreams equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion. It is hard for a seeing person to imagine, but the body’s need for sleep is so strong that it is able to handle virtually all physical situations to make it happen.


9. You Forget 90% of your Dreams


Within 5 minutes of waking, half of your dream if forgotten. Within 10, 90% is gone. The famous poet, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, woke one morning having had a fantastic dream (likely opium induced) – he put pen to paper and began to describe his “vision in a dream” in what has become one of English’s most famous poems: Kubla Khan. Part way through (54 lines in fact) he was interrupted by a “Person from Porlock“. Coleridge returned to his poem but could not remember the rest of his dream. The poem was never completed.

Spooked Out? Take the Paranormal Survey

The original parapsychological survey is once again live! It is back by public demand.

The survey was live for three months and during that time over 4,000 completed questionnaires were successfully lodged. And wouldn't you know it, as soon as I closed it the emails started rolling in - asking me to reopen it.


There was a genuine sense of missing out and so I've decided to reopen the survey.

One Command That Can Change Your Life

By Asara Lovejoy / Excerpt from The One Command

How many times have you heard that your negative thoughts are the cause of financial lack and limitation?

Or, if you are rich, the fear of losing what you have has kept you from a peaceful enjoyment of your wealth? And why is it that with every effort to change these conditions it hasn’t quite worked yet?


The answer, I discovered, is because the most powerful yet mostly ignored portions of our mind—the ones that can change our limited ideas into a rich life lived with grace and ease—have been left untapped.


The realization of this great capacity and the ability to create a rich life while engaged there changed my income and fortune from fear of lack and financial stress to a life of prosperity and happiness. When I discovered that greater capacity, it guided me in my every effort to be rich, joyful, and prosperous and removed forever that never-ending financial struggle that many of us have experienced.


I discovered that there are many levels to what we think is true about cash, money, and financial independence. Most of our ideas are based on the thought that there won’t be enough, or that money seems elusive and difficult to obtain, or, if we are rich, that we will lose what we have, or others may take it from us.


Many can argue that reality is as it is, but it is my experience that the opposite is exactly true: reality is ours for the making.

How Celebrities Quit Smoking

By Valerie Dawson
Creator of Quit Smoking Fast & Easy

What do Drew Barrymore, Ellen DeGeneres, Matt Damon and Charlize Theron have in common? They all quit smoking with hypnosis.

We all know that celebrities love to follow a trend - and, with smoking way down on the list of things that you should do in life - more and more famous people are turning to hypnosis to break their bad habits.


Let's face it - quitting smoking is hard, whether you're famous or not. It doesn't matter how bad you want to quit, sometimes actually being able to break the physical and mental addiction is something we just can't do on our own. But, the fact is that smoking could shorten your lifespan, it makes your life miserable and it eats up all your money.


So, it's no surprise that celebrities like these four have given hypnosis a try. Sometimes, having someone else deal with an addiction for you is just a lot easier than having to do it yourself. Matt Damon, for example, is said to have quit smoking straight after just three sessions with his hypnotherapist. As he said afterwards:


"It's amazing I didn't even want cigarettes any more."

How to Use the Hypnotic Gaze

By Clifford Mee
Creator of The Power of Conversational Hypnosis

The Hypnotic Gaze Induction is a powerful piece of language that requires more thought behind your actions and composure rather than words.


The hypnotic gaze induction can and will be used in many instances to run through the 4 Stage Protocol with many of your subjects. This is a skill that once learned will absorb attention, bypass critical factor, provoke an unconscious response and set the scene for you the direct that response.

It really takes care of it all when you learn to do it correctly. You must keep an eye on, no pun intended, the sub-communications you send and go first in the feeling of good will. You want to transmit through your body language that you mean for this to be a pleasant experience of mutual cooperation.


Finally you also need to be aware of the direct or indirect approach to take with each different individual you are working with. For now you should be concentrating on the more direct method of the hypnotic gaze but as time goes on you will be able to be less direct in this skill.

Keep in mind to have your confidence up and your insecurities checked at the door. All of this will help insure the best hypnotic gaze environment for both you and the person you are working with.

The Man Who Has Never Been Sick

Source: The Longevity Now Program

In some ways we can think of our immune system as a very important clean up crew for getting the toxins out of our body. It determines what's foreign and what's domestic.

The major diseases that are affecting society right now, such as cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, can all be improved if our immune system is improved. In particular, if you are dealing with one of the most aggressive forms of illnesses, you need to know that it is ALL about the immune system.


David Wolfe knows what he is talking about, he hasn't been sick in over 15 years, since he has started using the techniques. He says that there a number of things that affect our immunity, but the 2 major ones are...


1) The tap water that we drink - (even bathing in it can affect our immune system).


2) Our food supply - all the antibiotics, hormones, and genetically modified ingredients that are beginning to show up in our food supply all contribute to debilitating our immune systems.

English Man Wakes Up Irish After Brain Surgery

By Joe Fay / Source: The Register UK

A Yorkshire man woke up from brain surgery to find he'd turned from a flat vowelled, thrifty dalesman into a blarney kissing, 'Danny Boy' singing, happy-go-lucky Dubliner.


The Daily Mail reports that 30 year old Chris Gregory spent three days on life support, after a blood vessel in his brain ruptured. While the staff were relieved to see him come round, they were non-plussed when he opened his mouth and began speaking in a broad Irish accent.


He then spent 30 minutes lilting away and bursting into a rendition of 'Danny Boy'.


His wife-to-be walked into the ward, and heard a commotion including "someone singing 'Danny Boy' really loud. It sounded like a drunken Irishman, and all the racket seemed to coming from the direction of Chris’s bed."

How to Create Exactly What You Want

By Robert Anthony, Ph.D
Creator of The Secret of Deliberate Creation


Take a trip to any jail or prison and you will meet hundreds of people who will tell you they are the "victims" of their circumstances.

Travel through any big city ghetto and you'll hear the same thing.

Visit any affluent, high-class neighborhood, talk to the people there and you'll discover the same thing.

Visit a middle-class neighborhood in New York, Toronto, London or Sydney and you will meet people who believe they are the result of their circumstances, good or bad.

They will talk about the opportunities they were given, or the chances they were denied. They may be grateful for the education they were exposed to, or complain they were denied the education they deserve.

One person will tell you about her wonderful childhood and upbringing was, while another will complain that she came from a "dysfunctional" family.

There is no denying that income, status, education, upbringing, neighborhood, family and many other situations will influence, effect and even determine the outcome of our lives.

But who creates the circumstances?

Your parents? Your environment? God? Destiny? Lost in all this analysis and the assumption of almost every unconscious person I have ever met is this one very important reality.

The effect of our thoughts ABOUT our circumstances.

We cannot change what happened to us, but we can change our PERCEPTION about what happened to us. This is the key to changing our present circumstances and our future.

Our minds are like a garden. We can intelligently cultivate our garden, or we can allow it to run wild. If you diligently attend to your garden, it will produce the things you cultivate.

A New Twist on Time Travel

By John Berman and Wonbo Woo / ABC News

For some, the idea of time travel is about fantasy. For others it's science. But for Ronald Mallett, it was love -- a son's love for his father.


You might even call it his lifelong mission.


"I thought if I could build a time machine to save my father's life and see him again," said Mallett, whose father died when he was just 10.


"My father was someone who was the center of my life -- I was the oldest of four children and we grew up in the Bronx. And my father was a television repairman," Mallet said.


"He was terrific at his job, as a matter of fact. He really spent a lot of time with me, gave me little scientific toys like gyroscopes and crystal radio sets. I just I just worshipped him."


Mallet said he kept his plan a secret.


"I was astute enough to realize that people were worried about me already and if I told them that wanted to build a time machine I might not want to deal with the consequences," Mallett said.

The 10 Most Revealing Psych Experiments

Psychology is the study of the human mind and mental processes in relation to human behaviors - human nature. Due to its subject matter, psychology is not considered a 'hard' science, even though psychologists do experiment and publish their findings in respected journals.

Some of the experiments psychologists have conducted over the years reveal things about the way we humans think and behave that we might not want to embrace, but which can at least help keep us humble. That's something.


1. 'Lord of the Flies': Social Identity Theory


The Robbers Cave Experiment is a classic social psychology experiment conducted with two groups of 11-year old boys at a state park in Oklahoma, and demonstrates just how easily an exclusive group identity is adopted and how quickly the group can degenerate into prejudice and antagonism toward outsiders.


Researcher Muzafer Sherif actually conducted a series of 3 experiments. In the first, the groups banded together to gang up on a common enemy. In the second, the groups banded together to gang up on the researchers! By the third and final experiment, the researchers managed to turn the groups on each other.

Karma of the Brain: Why Good Things Happen to Good People

By Siri Agrell / Source: The Globe and Mail

What if your doctor told you to take two steps toward being a better person and call him in the morning?


Patients at a California health maintenance organization are being prescribed generous behaviour as part of a program called Rx: Volunteer, one of various new research projects described by Stephen Post in his book Why Good Things Happen To Good People, out next week. Dr. Post chronicles the link between doing good and living a longer, healthier life.


"The science shows that we're hardwired to be giving," he says. "We're talking here about a one-a-day vitamin for the soul."


A growing number of researchers are supporting his claim with studies that show how the human body benefits from everything from gratitude to generosity.


Dr. Post, the president of Case Western Reserve University's Institute for Research on Unlimited Love, believes in the scientific equivalent to The Secret, the self-help phenomenon that preaches positivity as a means to personal reward.


No, being a good person won't necessarily get you a new car or help you lose 10 pounds, Dr. Post says, but there is a karma of the brain, where the body physically rewards acts of kindness and forgiveness. "The remarkable bottom line of the science of love is that giving protects overall health twice as much as Aspirin protects against heart disease," he says.

The 10 Ten Superfoods That Will Change Your Life

By David Wolfe / Creator of Longevity Now

Through recent technological breakthroughs, we have discovered the appropriate foods and herbs that benefit everyone with maximum nutrition, flavor, health benefits, energy, as well as minimum calories and no trans fatty acids. These are “longevity foods” that increase our ability to live a full, long, abundant and joyful life.


Each and every human being has the inalienable right to pursue noble ideals. Because we were all born into the world with one known principle - “You are what you eat” - we can, in our pursuit of noble ideals, discover that there are indeed noble foods that assist us in achieving our dreams.


These special, noble foods and herbs fall into three time-proven, yet brand-new food groups:


1. Superfoods: These include foods that have many unique properties. For example, the goji berry (a superfood) is a source of complete protein, immune-stimulating polysaccharides, liver-cleansing betaine, anti-aging sesquiterpenes, antioxidants, over 20 trace minerals, and much, much more. Compare this to a normal food, such as celery.


2. Superherbs: These include herbs that have super tonic and adaptogenic properties as well as many other unique gifts. For example, reishi mushroom (a superherb) helps support a healthy immune system, heart, lungs, kidneys, as well as assisting with rejuvenating brain and connective tissue.


3. Living, raw plant foods: These are important, normal foods that include most fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, seaweeds, sprouts, grasses, fresh herbs, and fermented foods (i.e. sauerkraut).

The End of Aging: Is Getting Old Inevitable?

Posted by Casey Kazan / Source: DailyGalaxy.com

In his non-fiction Amazon bestseller, Ending Aging, Aubrey de Grey, champions recent progress in genetics and calorie-restricted diets in laboratory animals that hold forth the promise that someday science will enable us to exert total control over our own biological aging and substantially slow down the aging process.

Aubrey de Grey is convinced that he has formulated the theoretical means by which human beings might live thousands of years -- indefinitely, in fact.


Unlike Francis Bacon, de Grey has never stationed himself at a laboratory bench to attempt a ­single hands-on experiment, at least not in human biology. He is a computer scientist who has taught himself natural science, and has set himself toward the goal of transforming the basis of what it means to be human.


Dr. de Grey, who holds a rare University of Cambridge degree on this basis of publications rather than classwork, believes that the key biomedical technology required to eliminate aging-derived debilitation and death entirely is now within reach —technology that would not only slow but periodically reverse age-related physiological decay, leaving us biologically young into an indefinite future—is now within reach.

How to Prepare for The Shift

Exclusive Interview with Laurie Nadel, Ph.D.

Q: Dr. Dyer, you write about what happens when we step into the afternoon of life. How do people know when they’re in the afternoon of life? I mean, what kind of shifts happen in our lives?


WAYNE DYER: Carl Jung writes that the afternoon of our lives represents the time when we begin to shift away from the ego being the dominant force in our life. We begin moving towards a life journey that has meaning. The morning of our lives is really occupied by ambition—getting as much as you can, collecting as much stuff as you can get, impressing as many people as you can, preparing yourself for a job, saving your money, setting goals, pleasing everybody, and doing the right thing. Even getting good grades in school revolved around the ego part of us, which really believes that who we are is what we do, what we get, and what other people think of us. That’s basically the essence of the ego. In the afternoon of your life, you don’t do life. You do what resonates with the callings of your soul.

Q: How does the current global economic, sociopolitical, and spiritual crisis give people a surprising opportunity to find their true purpose?


WAYNE DYER: Yeah. First of all, I’m not in a crisis, and I’m not in an economic crisis at all.

Q: No, I understand that but other people are.

WAYNE DYER: I think a big part of this “crisis” that everybody is talking about is all about fear. We’ve been force-fed a steady diet of fear. The statistics come out—500,000 jobs lost. Five-hundred thousand jobs lost doesn’t mean that a half a million people are going to go jump off a cliff or even get unemployment. They’re going to get different jobs or they’re going to do something different.

Everybody that was making cassette tapes ten years ago lost his job, but it doesn’t mean that that’s a horrible crisis. It means that those people are now making DVDs or that they’re moving. The world is always shifting. The Tao teaches us to get to a place of contentment and become the observer. Just notice it. The material world is never flat. It always has its ups and downs. In a deep well within us all misfortune and good fortune is hidden. In all good fortune, misfortune is hidden. When you’re at a peak, you know you’re going to go down into a valley. When you hit the bottom, you’re going to go up. We just kill ourselves with all of this information, and all of this fear. You can’t go anywhere without hearing people talk about it.

The 9 Powers of Dreaming

By Robert Moss / MossDreams.com

Have you ever said, “it’s only a dream”? While we often dismiss dreams, or fail to make room for them in the hurry of our daily lives, dreams can be a fabulous source of guidance, healing and juice for any day. Dreams offer us nine tremendous gifts.


1. We solve problems in our sleep


Jeff Taylor woke in the middle of the night from a dream in which he created an electronic bulletin board that was lit up with eager job-hunters logging in from all over the map. He scrawled the phrase “Monster board” on a pad in the dark, then rushed to an all-night coffee shop and roughed out the plan for what became the stunningly successful internet job agency, Monster.com


If you want to solve a problem, or need a fresh perspective, sleep on it. Write down your intention (“I would like guidance on X”) before turning in, and be ready to record something whenever you wake up. Even if you have forgotten your dreams, you may find you have your solution.


2. Dreams coach us for future challenges and opportunities.


John Lennon dreamed he read his own obituary and was shocked to find that he had murdered himself, in front of the Dakota on Central Park. Eleven months later, he was murdered in front of the Dakota by a demented fan who identified with the Beatles star to the point where he married a Japanese woman, collected the same type of art, and signed out of work the day before the murder as “John Lennon”.


Lennon’s dream was precognitive; it showed him a future event that was played out when the wannabe John Lennon killed the real one. But dreams also give us early warnings: they show us future challenges (and opportunities) that may or may not play out, depending on whether we read the message correctly and take appropriate action. I believe that my own life has been saved from fatal road accidents on three occasions because I was able to use dream previews as travel advisories.

Miracles or Madness?

By Danny Penman
Source: The Daily Mail


News of the ‘miracle’ spread around the world with lightning speed.


A Jewish fish-cutter in New York was busy slaughtering a batch of carp when one of them started shouting apocalyptic warnings to him in Hebrew. ‘The fish shouted that everyone needed to account for themselves because the end is near,’ says Zalmen Rosen, the fish-cutter.


The fish told Zalmen to pray and study the Torah, before identifying itself as the soul of a local man who had died the previous year.


After a moment of stunned silence all hell broke loose. Mr Rosen’s co-worker Louis Nivelo was convinced the talking fish was the work of Satan, and ran around screaming: ‘It’s the devil! The devil is here!’ before collapsing into a pile of packing crates.


Zalmen panicked and tried to kill the fish with a machete-sized knife. But the carp bucked so wildly that he succeeded only in slicing a huge gash in his own thumb, and had to be rushed to hospital.


The fish flopped off the counter – still muttering in Hebrew — and was butchered by Louis Nivelo.


Word quickly spread that a miracle had occurred in New York. It sparked a heated debate around the world. Was it a genuine miracle or just the ramblings of two rather fevered imaginations? After all, to those brought up with biblical tales of Moses parting the Red Sea, the story of a talking fish hardly counts as a miracle.


Would God really reveal His presence and deliver his prophesies through a fish destined for the freezer? It seems unlikely, but many think God is choosing to reveal His presence with increasingly surreal miracles tailored for the media age.
