Humanology

The Study of us, humans. How to be human is a question that has no answer. The best any human can do is to make an effort to learn and improve on our own lives. This is a public journal and a public journey to gather, process, explore and share as much information as we can find in our quest to be human.

A good article on Neuro Associations as it relates to athletes and MMA. Nice to see something like this without religion bleeding into it.

I love technology but hate when it gets trumped by greed. I am almost certain that this will go the way for Bloombox and never become a true consumer good. Only available to the rich, famous and military. Please, prove me wrong here MIT.. please.

I love technology and I think the bio tech world is the most promising, but worry about stuff like this. Is it really healthier? What do we we really know about something so new?

5. Take your first bite with your eyes closed I once went to a restaurant where the entire dining experience, including being seated at our table, occurred in the pitch dark. The idea was to focus exclusively on the experience of eating, without the distraction of vision. Unfortunately the food at this restaurant was terrible, and focusing on it only made this point more obvious. But it was a good lesson, and I was certainly not tempted to overeat as a result. While eating all of your meals in the dark, or even with your eyes closed, is not very practical, taking the time to taste your first bite with your full attention can help you eat the rest of your meal more mindfully. Focus on all the flavors in your mouth and how they interact, as well as the smells and textures. This will help you both appreciate your food and eat more slowly.

So obvious yet so brilliant. I wonder if more things in life could be better appreciated or at least better understood if you limited the experience to one or two of your sense at a time. I’m sure the synergy of senses coming together is necessary for a lot of experiences, but when have you ever tried isolating and focusing on just a few. It could be really eye opening.
