Episode # 9: When The Sound Is Silence

We're this living ball of energy and our time here is limited and fragile and precious.

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor was a Harvard trained and published neuro anatomist. In 1996, she awoke with a screaming headache only to discover she had suffered a massive stroke in the left hemisphere of her brain. With the ability to observe what was happening, she found herself in a euphoric state as expanding energy, suspended between life and death. Jill was detached from her body and released herself to her death until…she realized that she was still alive.  Refusing to succumb to a vegetative state, Jill chose the long path of recovery.

Listen to this powerful Hero’s Journey where Jill recovers all her abilities and brings a message of the lifelong healing power of the human brain.

ABOUT JILL

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard trained and published neuroanatomist. In 1996, a blood vessel exploded in the left half of her brain and over the course of four hours she watched her mind completely deteriorate until she could not walk, talk, read, write or recall any of her life. It took eight years for her to completely recover all function. In 2008, Dr. Taylor gave the first TED talk that ever went viral, she was the premier guest on Oprah’s Soul Series and she was named one as of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the World for 2008. Her memoir My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey spent 17 weeks on the NY Times bestseller list and is translated in over 30 languages. Dr. Taylor is committed to educating the public about neuroplasticity and the ability of the brain to recover from stroke or brain trauma. She is a highly sought after public speaker who travels the world, and she uses her not-for-profit organization Jill Bolte Taylor BRAINS to forward her mission.
