Stroke of Insight – Jill Bolte Taylor

This astounding video recounts neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor’s experience of having a stroke. Not only is she able to contextualize the experience from a medical perspective, but she discovers that bliss may be a simple matter of “stepping to the right.” I also highly recommend her book, where she candidly offers her experience of recovery. A definite must for anyone with loved ones who have had a stroke. Also, In the process of recovery, she discovers that she has the power to reprogram her habitual patterns in order to make better choices. And isn’t that what yoga is all about?
