amzn.to/3jLbL0p Ruminations are memories. They are the thoughts we keep having when we are looking for answers. But forgot the question. They fill up our brain with useless architecture. Just saying... #author #brain #exercise #meditation #trauma #rumination

Ok! Here is my first book -- "Everyday Trauma." Its about how we ruminate about the past -- even though it doesn't exist. amzn.to/3jLbL0p

NSF’s commitment to basic science — accruing knowledge for its own sake — is one of the most laudable missions of any organization. Always such an inspiration.

Interesting. Any ideas why this would have evolved? Or is it just because of its location?

Dr. Tracey Shors @drtraceyshors.bsky.social · 28/04/2025
Totally agree. And then to do it again!!

Love those theta rhythms. Always have! From the very (!) early studies suggesting they predict potential for learning.

Intriguing data!

It’s difficult for people to imagine this change affecting them. Until they or a loved one becomes ill. One of my best friend’s daughter was just cured of a cancer she thought would kill her only 6 months ago! Scientists are in it for the long haul.

So interesting. Not easy to study for obvious reasons. But correlation beats nothing!

Good points here. I’ve seen it happen over the decades. No time to think. Too many forms to fill out!

Yes. I was thinking the same thing. Must be upper limit on volume. How could you address? Out of curiosity…

Good point. As long as they can be taken care of.

True this. And it’s okay. It’s how we learn what’s real versus just an aberration.
