thought-waves | frequencies thought-waves by Gabriel Levy I grew up by the shores of Lake Michigan. We used to play a game in the summer time. Much later in my life I was exposed to the more gruesome power of such waves. In the short story, “The Seventh Man” Haruki Murakami describes a wave as a doorway into the “other world” that characterizes many of his stories. In the tip of the wave, as if enclosed in some kind of transparent capsule, floated K’s body, reclining on its side. I don’t know what spirituality is, but when I think of the word, I think of waves—thought waves. Because I am interested in the materiality of thought and its medium, I often ask myself: what is thought made of? Perhaps thought is like a sound wave. Certainly one medium of thought is sound waves. Sound waves are waves of pressure. Perhaps thoughts, like sound, need to travel in a medium. In former centuries physicists looked in vein for the medium in which light traveled; they called this imaginary medium aether.
How to Memorize Things Quickly People like to joke that the only thing you really “learn” in school is how to memorize. As it turns out, that’s not even the case for most of us. If you go around the room and ask a handful of people how to memorize things quickly, most of them will probably tell you repetition. That is so far from the truth, it’s running for office. Before we start, you need to establish something: are you an auditory, visual, or experiential learner? Step 1: Preparation To optimize your memorization session, pay close attention to which environment you choose. Next, start drinking some tea. As we get older, toxic chemicals will damage our neurons and synapses, leading to memory loss and even Alzheimer’s. Step 2: Record What You’re Memorizing This is especially useful if you’re trying to memorize information from a lecture. Step 3: Write Everything Down Before you start trying to recall everything from memory, write and re-write the information. Step 4: Section your notes. Step 9: Take a break
Mindfulness Is Not Meditation: How to Navigate Your Way to Prescence | High Existence Mindfulness is a word being thrown around a lot recently. But there seems to be a lot of misunderstanding about what it is. In this article I will show you the difference between mindfulness and meditation – and why it matters. To be mindful, in very general terms, is to be aware. Imagine this: You’re walking with a friend down a busy road, it’s the middle of winter, and there’s snow and ice, cars are flying past, and a hundred men in business suits scuttle by with coffees. Question: what does that mean to you? It means be aware of the ice, take notice of it, don’t let it escape you or you might suffer the repercussions. It’s not meditation. If there is one prerequisite to being mindful, it’s that you need to be ‘in the moment’ if you’re going to notice the goings-on around you. You can only focus on one world at a time—the one outside your head, or the one within it.Tweet This That’s the layman’s version of being mindful. There are, however, different interpretations. What is Meditation? Look:
3 Ways to Improve Memory The human brain is one of the most mysterious and powerful tools in the modern world. This magical organ interprets reality through synapses and neurons, forming subjective thoughts, qualities, and memories, which form our identities. Using up to twenty percent of the energy we consume, our brain is always working and always changing. As we grow, the connections between regions of the brain reinforce each other, fortifying our memory, until a certain age at which, either naturally, through “disuse,” or through memory loss diseases such as Alzheimer’s, we begin to lose control of our memories. But we are not necessarily doomed to forget our brief passage through this life before our brain finally shuts down: here are three ways you can enhance your memory through lifestyle changes. 1. Understanding how your brain makes memories is crucial to improving memory function. The act of recollecting is a helpful exercise in improving memory itself. 2. Get plenty of sleep! 3.
