do you think you can control your brain, if yes give an an example

Most cognition scientists are fairly certain the brain is the center of body control. So I'm not sure what you mean by controlling your brain, do you mean shaping thought or physical movment of the brain?

the mind is a VERY powerful tool.. one that can be manipulated to do as WE would like it to do.. AND have a cause and effect on our own bodies AND lives!

example 1:
I am a cancer survivor.. I battled it for 17 years and beat ALL the odds.. the doctors said it was IMPOSSIBLE.. but I just KNEW they were wrong.. at least I didn't want to ACCEPT what they deemed would be the short LIFE I would HAVE! I reFUSED to allow my FUTURE handed over for a "death sentence"... here I am.. 17 years later.. sitting in HEALTH.. typing this for all to see.. beating ALL their ODDS.. not only surVIVIng.. but also having 2 children in the process the Power of the MIND IS a wonderment!

example 2:
I was hit by a car 8 years ago.. after 2 years doing it the DOCTORS/SPECIALISTS way and only gaining 2% usuage of my left side ( I walked around like a stroke victim as I had only achieved 9% total usage of the arm/leg) AND feeling the horrid effects of prescribed drugs I told my Doctor I'd had ENOUGH! I asked him if he would let ME try it MY way.. he agreed as all other options seemed fruitless..
today? after much hard work and dedication.. I can run.. walk.. hike.. do construction work.. be a Full time Mom AND self employed FULL TIME!! I'm self sufficient.. determined.. dedicated.. and STRONG! and I owe it all to my DECISION NOT to accept limitations of others!

the brain is a MAGNIFICANT tool.. and if you're lucky enough to be able to tap into the resources of BOTH parts!! KUDOS!! life IS and WILL be aMAZING!!

WTG Z..you rawk!!

I decided I no longer wanted to be ticklish. So now I'm not.

BRAIN POWER!!

Having survived brain cancer 13 years ago and another tumor not to long ago,,, I can truely say the brain is a powerful tool, set your mind in motion,,, Miracles happen,,,,,,,


Blessed am I to have had the ability to live life believing in the impossible and dreaming for the reality....

yes and amazing things happen.
however, some cannot control their thoughts. that is madness.

so let me give you an example, if i blink one eye, is it my brain that did it or is it just me who did it,in other words am trying to ask 'what makes "you" is it your brain or some spirit you think is inside you

I believe it is your conscious and UNconscious ethereal mind that makes us whole!

yes i do--
especially being a labor and delivery nurse
everyone has a different pain threshold, however
you have to stay in control also. was you lose the control or focus---
same with after having surgery, if you tell yourself what to expect, that it will hurt, etc. but know that you have to get up, walk, cough/deep breathe to get better it becomes easier.

I have panic attacks and anxiety so I know my suconcious screws with me a lot.

Thoughts are a powerful tool, for example, if you dwell on something negative you will get what you ask for. So it is always wise to think about positive stuff...especially when you are sad.

i agree sin--

also what goes in, comes out. if you are told you are ugly or no good every day then you start to think that.
i tell my kids every day that they are smart, beautiful, and can do anything they want in life.
also when someone asks me how are you or how is your day, i answer wonderful even if everything is falling apart. i think the mind is powerful and things are not always what they appear to be.

I can control other peoples brains. Everytime George Bush is on TV I just think to myself real hard "say something stupid" and it never fails.

**** that, then control mine
