How to Turn on Your Brain






" The human brain has 100-billion neurons, each neuron connected to 10-thousand other neurons. Sitting on your shoulders is the most complicated object in the known universe."
— Michio Kaku






Hello AWMS subscriber :
Like other personal development authors, seminar leaders, and instructors, I often speak about the human mind, expanding awareness, and raising consciousness. But we don't speak much about the brain. The mind is conceptual, but the brain is a physical organ. It only weighs about three pounds yet it consumes 20% of the body's blood, oxygen, and glucose as the body's central nervous system.
The brain innately emits varying frequencies of electromagnetic waves. As we experience increasing levels of stimuli and stress, our brainwave frequencies go higher, and we become more scattered and confused. Stress management lowers brainwave frequencies making the brain more intelligent, aware, focused, lucid, and astute.
High stress also causes the brain to literally shrink, while mindfulness meditators experience brain growth throughout adulthood. If you're not managing stress with meditation and contemplation, your brain is withering away.
Beats, baby-boomers, and younger generations have become interested in expanded awareness by using mind-expanding psychedelics. But they often turn to meditation and ancient Vedantic philosophies as more natural approaches to expanding awareness. Essentially, we must learn to turn off our mind to turn on our brain. After practicing meditation, John Lennon sang, "turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream."
Listen to our Ageless Wisdom Mystery School podcast this week as I replay my last interview with the High Priest of LSD, Dr. Timothy Leary (use links below). This interview was done in April of 1993, just three years before his death, and two years before the Internet — pretty fascinating stuff.
Fearlessness is Peace and Love,
