After her stroke Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor made a decision a million times each day to recover. That decision not only led to her eventual recovery, but a remarkable opportunity to share her experiences with audiences. In a presentation that has been called nothing short of mesmerizing Taylor relives her experiences of having a stroke and gives audiences a brief guided tour of the brain. She describes the biological underpinnings of watching half her brain deteriorate and shares valuable insights on:
- Why she initially studied the brain, her research and her own brain disorder
- How to get the brain to do what you want it to do
- How to capitalize on the brain’s two hemispheres
- How the choices we make and the thoughts we think directly influence our level of joy
In addition, Dr. Jill is happy to create an original topic in order to cater her presentation to an organization’s specific needs.
