Lincoln Stoller2019-02-15T15:02:39-07:00"There are many forms of relaxation: mental, physical, visceral, temporal, pertaining to health, exercise, work, play, or relationships, for a start. These feel different, require different means, and have different ends, but we distinguish them
The Reality of Illusion
Lincoln Stoller2019-03-05T02:11:12-07:00This piece is about what we think is real and the difference between sensation and feeling. It is about the worlds of imagination and dreams, and the process of making feelings into sensations, that is making dreams real.This confusion about real and imagined disease is just plain dumb.

Sleep Authority, and Why We Don’t Have It
Lincoln Stoller2019-03-05T02:17:05-07:00"One of the paradoxes of sleep is that the harder you try, the less you get. It would seem you are responsible, but lack the authority to procure it. The fundamental rule that authority must come with responsibility doesn't apply to sleep... It's a paradox for me too. I can see a person's problem, and what he or she needs.

We fill in the blanks by social contract, seeing the same things in a world of which we're mostly unaware. Everyday events are so familiar as to mean little. We 'think' strings of events and actions into stories flat and forward looking. And when we're finished building our flat story, with idiosyncrasies removed, we call it reality. The 'real world,' as opposed to the dream world..."
Seeing Stars
Lincoln Stoller2019-02-17T23:53:30-07:00"We talk about the lifetime of a system as the time over which it works, between its beginning and its end, and for stars that shine this is a long time. "What does it mean
Hypnotic Brainwaves
Lincoln Stoller2019-02-18T00:13:36-07:00"There has long been a question of whether hypnotic trance is a distinct brain state, or just a different way of paying attention. I want to show you the brainwaves of one of my clients
Learn to Think
Lincoln Stoller2019-02-18T00:15:47-07:00"Consciousness is being aware of what comes up in your mind. That means thoughts, perceptions, and sensations. Consciousness is not the control of these things, it's awareness of them. Control happens elsewhere. "We are not
