your golf game and you want to remember the street


the


golf course is on, scratching your left temporal lobe with the intention “Fetch, please” will access the neural networks that contain


the name of the street.


SANTA ROSA, CA. ~ Physi- cal actions transfer energy. Many of the gestures we make (fiddling with our fingers, ad- justing our hair, tapping on the table, etc.) are unconscious expressions of feelings we’re having and generally not talk- ing about, and perhaps not even aware of. These same ac- tions (such as adjusting one’s hair over one’s left ear)—done with intention—direct energy INTO that part of the brain. (In the case of adjusting one’s hair over one’s left ear,


it directs


energy into the temporal lobe.) So if you want to remember something, intentionally touch your left temporal lobe before, during and/or after you hear something you want to remem- ber. This will be a conscious act of intention and the energy you transmit will impact neural networks accordingly.


Like- wise, when you’re driving to “Knowledge is like


an endless resource; a well of water that satisfies the innate thirst of the grow- ing human soul.


Terefore never stop learning... because


the day you do, you will also stop maturing.” Chidi Okonkwo

Here are some oth- er examples: • Rub your forehead when you are decid- ing what to do today. This will activate the frontal


lobe—


the planning part of the brain where we make considered de- cisions. • Rub the middle of the back of your head when you want to remember what someone was wearing last night, or what Indian Springs looked like 45 years ago. This will activate the occipital lobe,

which allows us to see and re- member sights, from faces to landscapes. • Rub above your right ear if


want to relieve the itching in your left arm. This will activate the sensory cortex, specifically where your senses are integrat- ed in the brain. The more we know about brain geogra- phy and the tenden- cies of the networks contained


in the


you are seeking a creative idea. This will activate the temporal lobe responsible for, among other things, memory and see- ing the world in new ways. • Rub the top of your head above your right ear if you


various areas of that geography, the more we can direct the POWER OF OUR FOCUSED INTEN- TION to heal, excite, calm, decide and re- member. Although most of our gestures are automatic move- ments of uncon- scious expression, we


CAN use the energy backwards to impact and direct the brain’s enormous power.


My cousin always “borrows” money from her older brother’s piggy bank, which drives him crazy. One day, she found the piggy in, of all places, the freezer. Inside was this note: “Dear sister, I hope you’ll under- stand, but my capital has been frozen.”
