I have heard so much about how good his books are, I decided to read Love, Medicine and Miracles. A lot seems a bit over the edge. Anyhow, the part that bothers me is that he says that psychologists are always telling us that we only use 10% of our brains. Now, I teach cognitive psychology and that is one of the myths that I tackle. We use 100% of our brains. So now I wonder about the rest of the book.

Hugs.

    Maybe this is the answer to the old 10% brain usage riddle: Perhaps we only use 10% at a time and perhaps our brains are set up on a roving assignment sort of system (lest we wear it out using the same 10% over and over), thus we may use a different 10% every time we need access???

    LOL...just had to throw that thought out there!
    Me thinks only the shadow knows for sure and he's not sharing! Me, well I'm just happy for the parts of the old brain which seem to still work reliably!

    Love, light and laughter,
