Guest guest Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Professor Eysenck said we were born with 99% of our personalities intact. He was always revered by the ruling class, who he absolutely adored, because he said they had superior genes to the rest of us, and so got he got loads of universal accliam because money can buy all this and more. But he got it completely wrong, as the modern science in this documentary shows, but he is still revered in mainsteam science today (because money can buy all of this) and yet he should really go down as the biggest w*nker in history.

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Hi KvI am just a day old in this group, and had just hit bottom of another cyclein my struggle within mind and life.This simple introduction to the documentary itself elevates my mood instantaneously.As I try to use ACT to transform hatred towards my mom for "killing my life", I wishall would learn to love all and your dislike towards baboons be transformed.Thanks you KvTHOMAS C >> > I wasn't sure if whether to put this out but at the end this documentary> on stress offers a lot of hope.

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 This is the last of my posts on this subject for a while as I know you tire from this ubject easily, but for me this is terribly interesting and generates lots of hope that I can fully recover. Back in the 60's and 70's Professor Eysenck (genetic determinism) and Professor Reuven Feuerstein (environment influences) were in polar opposite camps but most of the worlds scientists agreed with Eysenck. But Professor Reuven Feuerstein won outright. We truly live in exciting times as the new science is so optimistic. Professor say's: Feuerstein says it is his outlook on life that has led to his achievements. "If you have two alternatives, don't make the pessimistic choice. Always choose like an optimist. At least that will bring you to action, to test the waters. If you take the pessimistic route, you'll never accomplish anything. Even if you don't think you'll reach the highest levels, you still have to try to climb up." Professor Reuven Feuerstein has changed the lives of thousands of disabled children around the world. Extract: Feuerstein's success stories are inspiring. They include the drama teacher who was brought to him as a child with an IQ of 60, and the mentally limited girl who finished regular high school, was an editor of the yearbook and became a parachutist. Then there is Kinsley, a young man with Down Syndrome who wrote the book Count Me In. And Roman Aldubi, the yeshiva student whose skull and brain were smashed in a terrorist ambush of a youth group. Despite the doctors' dire predictions that he'd remain a vegetable if he survived, Roman functions normally and works in computers, Many of Professor Feuerstein's clients are Down Syndrome children, once routinely institutionalized for belief that they could not function normally in society. Feuerstein has proved the experts wrong. Many of his clients attend regular schools and reach a moderate level of self-sufficiency. Feuerstein doesn't believe in IQ tests, which he says indicate what the child has learned, not what he's capable of learning. To Feuerstein, the key is to discover the barriers to a child's learning so that they can be bypassed. http://www.aish.com/jw/id/48914587.html Kv > >> >> > I wasn't sure if whether to put this out but at the end this> documentary> > on stress offers a lot of hope.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Dear Kv, hopefully if someone is tiring " " from this subject easily, but for me this is terribly interesting and generates lots of hope that I can fully recover. " " they can just skip over these kinds of posts. I really appreciate all of your research very much. I am half way through 20 treatment session with TMS Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and, superstitiously don't want to say this out loud, am experiencing some relief from MMD major depressive disorder. Neuroplasty is definitely a significant direction to be going. Of course my doctor explained that this procedure can only help my brain's hardware, but can't change the way I think. ACT, CBT, DBT changing the way I think. Wanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
