5 ways to cheat your brain !!!
- Ganzfeldov process
Start by tune the sound of the radio receiver (radio frequency between the cells). Turn on the red light and turn it to the position where you lie. Then divide ping pong ball, lie down on the couch and paste half over his eyes. Some argue that it is sufficient and binding, or sleeping mask, but it is not guaranteed to work.
Within a few minutes, you should experience a set of sensory disorders. One sees horses in clouds, or hears the voice of dead relatives ... a range of colors and strange shapes ...
The human mind is accustomed to the sensation of the event, so that when we block the senses (because and nice ping pong balls in listening to noise), the mind begins to 'invents' own.
- An unusual way to relieve the pain
Scientists at Oxford University have announced the discovery of a new strong pain killers: Inverted glasses.
They found that when subjects watched a wounded finger through the 'upside-down' side of the binoculars, making them the finger looks like it is, they feel much less pain and reduce swelling rapidly.
- Pinocchio illusion
This way to trick the brain requires two chairs and a blindfold.
A person wearing the blindfold should sit at the back of the chair and look in the back of the person sitting in front. A person with a bandage needs to put his hand on the nose of another person (in front) at the same time keep your other hand on your nose. Then should start gently stroking the nose and after about one minute, you will have the feeling that your nose as far as when Pinocchio lying.
It is important to note that this experiment has not demonstrated a hundred percent successful outcome, although more than 50 percent of respondents had a long nose.
- The rubber hand
if you own (real) rubber arm, for example, a hand of dolls in the window ... then this hallucination is ideal for you.
Start by his one arm hidden under a box on the table, and put yourself in front of a fake hand. Hands must be positioned so that from your point of view it looks like it's yours. Then extend the other arm, so it looks like you gave both hands in front of him on the table.
Ask a friend to sit across from you and a few minutes rubbing your real and fake hand. After a few minutes you will feel as if it is a fake hand become part of your body.
Once you are feeling that your fake hand - let's drinkers strongly struck with a hammer. You will feel a strong pain and anxiety, because you have successfully tricked the brain that thinks fake hand belongs to your body.
- Purkinje light
Jan Purkinje, one of the founders of modern neuroscience has revealed these hallucinations as a child. First he closed his eyes (important!) And then head leaned forward so that her face turned toward the sun and began to quickly move your hand back and forth in front of my eyes closed. After a few seconds, Purkinje noticed a set of "beautiful form", which became more pronounced.
Scientists have adopted this method and made special goggles that simulate the process of blocking light. This stimulation seems to be a real short circuits in the visual part of the brain. His cells start firing unpredictable bursts, leading to the perception of imaginary images.
