Dr. Norman Doidge | The Power of Thought

[@omkars764]

Here's a thought. If you're interviewing someone, don't interrupt that person every five seconds just to show them that you know things too.

[@tinamariefeliciano2751]

Crazy I've just come across this video watching another video, and he mentioned Dr Norman I have had this experience recently. I have arthritis In my joints and naturally blocked them out on my own. Amazing how In control your mind can be.

[@crh251]

I would love to know more about what you did. I have severe arthritis in my lower back.

[@oakfat5178]

Well done developing that unassisted.

[@silvioapires]

She could have said in the end instead "It's been a pleasure interrupting you!" A brilliant guest spoiled by an extremely annoying interviewer, how much more we could have gathered from this had he been able to finish his various highly interesting points.

[@crh251]

I agree. Constant interruptions. It was driving me crazy.

[@oakfat5178]

There's a fashion now that the interviewer somehow becomes as much a subject of the interview as the interviewee themselves. To mis-quote The King "A little less conversation A little more interview, please" The interviewer seemed overly keen to prove that she'd read the book assignment.

[@lelandro42]

I'm reading his latest book right now. It's fascinating. I'm glad I saw this interview. He is as good in front of the camera as he is in writing. I'm very excited about his discoveries and excited to see what more will come of his research. At one point the interviewer asks him "why aren't all doctors recommending this treatment." It seemed like an antagonistic question to me, but I wish he would've made the point that medical changes always come slowly. Ignaz Semmelweiss discovered that failure to wash hands between patients led to the transmission of puerperal fever in 1847. It took more than 20 years for that concept to catch on and in fact many clinicians still don't properly wash their hands and become very defensive if you ask them to. Change is always difficult and just because someone, or a group of someones, isn't following the latest research it doesn't mean the research is bad. In fact Dr. Doidge is very gracious in the book about the resistance coming from the neuroscience establishment.

This gentleman has given stroke survivors (this one at least) allot of great info. & I feel extremely fortunate for how things have gone in my case (though must admit holding on by my fingertips for some periods; a damaged brain can make you crazy). Read all of Dr. Doidge's books and have seen much footage (along w using the software mentioned & others & Taoist Tai Chi). Thank you Dr. Doidge!

[@theodosios2615]

If this doesn't blow your mind with excitement...watch it again, because you missed something.

[@TA-os2ru]

im shook.

[@katherineswart474]

I wish the interviewer would get a hold of her unbridled enthusiasm and let the good doctor speak.

[@justme8108]

Horrible interviewer! Just as he tries to explain, she dives in with unnecessary questions.

[@mitzipepall3075]

That's exactly what I was thinking. "Be quiet and let him speak."

[@wandmayeslupik6302]

Interweaver needs brain fixed!

[@louisehannant8485]

I have seen and worked with some of these theories. Amazing improvement in people with Parkinson's and stroke. Was introduced to some of the ideas working with children who were slow in getting their language going. This was already in the late 70's in Sweden

[@jonbraverman8995]

louise hannant ey

[@nkosinathiban-hela8423]

Interesting finding! Remembering that developing countries spend billions of dollars try to combat diseases that can be cured by using the mind 😂 the money can be used for other useful resources like infrastructure and food 😎

[@miggrodriguez9996]

Those interruptions are sooooo annoying! I wanted to over it again but this lady made it unbearable.I would like to know Dr.Doidge thought on her brain? He should've offer to study her and CHANGE her way of doing interviews.

[@elijahsprague3550]

There is a great book titled “Descartes Error” that explains the brain body connection. Fascinating stuff; great interview.

[@mcmjr405]

Thank you I’m looking it up on amazon now.

[@mazenahmed4901]

LET HIM TALK !!!

[@RA-uw3hh]

I am a junior neurology resident and I don’t know if this is true or not but I know that I hope this thing is real and I’m very open to try it with my patients as long as they are committed to their meds .

[@mehamedislam251]

I need medical advice please

[@cristinacervifitness3662]

thanks for this explanation, I am researching fibromyalgia and I will incorporate your book in my studies

[@MRayner59]

Fascinating stuff.

[@jufrifaisal6319]

Thanks Dr. God Bless

[@Ashar_Husain_Khan]

Quite informative, thanks for sharing 👍

[@TheRealChubbDaddy]

Very interesting but CHRIST, let the expert explain!!! Extremely irritating for the interviewer to interrupt on a regular basis with a kindergarten rephrasing of what is being said. Reframing is fine but let the man finish a sentence first!

[@ryannyamz1473]

Women always do that bro

[@aprilmiket]

I came here to say the same thing. So annoying and disrespectful!!

[@benswitzer4679]

Holy interrupting batman. Most annoying thing in the world to me, like nails on a chalkboard.

[@kenrhino7904]

No kidding. She should have just interviewed herself.

[@joelpierson2628]

The idea of Neurol plasticity should speak loudly to people that struggle learning to play an instrument.

[@chromanin]

Great interview. I was charmed by her enthusiasm and eagerness to learn.

[@John83118]

I'm captivated by this content. I read a book with similar content, and it was absolutely stunning. "Unlocking the Brain's Full Potential" by Alexander Sterling

[@ljon008]

I thought I was the only one bothered by the interviewer, until I started reading some of the comments.

[@patmull1]

12 Rules for Life brought me here.

[@simplyspeakers18]

Same! Just finished Dr.Doidge intro 😉😁

[@christasstory4306]

I would love to see him I have conversion disorders and isn't getting any better and tremors and been sharing my story on here hoping to get answers..

[@danmaritz2925]

This interviewer needs to learn how to stop interrupting people.

[@NewEarth25]

Mind is a distributed field of consciousness and brain is picking up vibrations as a receiver and transmitter of consciousness through six senses (knowing mind is the sixth sense in Buddhism). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mind.

[@aaagggmmmsss]

excellent

[@mathewgarza3436]

your mind is your soul

[@MsEmm10]

I wish she'd stop interrupting him wtf!!!

[@martin5504]

The interviewer should let him speak more please.

[@Maya-Saric]

he is great, sho not so much

[@papman100]

Stop cutting him off and let him speaks ffs.

[@manoftheworld1000]

Part of the skepticism towards neuroplasticity has on the one hand to do with the reasons Norman Doidge describes in the interview. Another reason, I guess, has to do with the fact that there's so much *bunk* out there, all of it being sold under the label of "Neuro"!

[@waterkingdavid]

Agreed. But also because mainstream scientists are still operating under the old paradigm that the brain generates the mind.

[@manoftheworld1000]

Which is not very far from what Raymond Tallis would call "neuromania".

[@sharicecarty6140]

Is it just me or does this lady INTERUP too much .cant let the man talk

[@writingservices5849]

The interviewer needs to listen more and talk less.

[@darkyimanc4736]

Thats true.Drugs reshape a lot more than you think the brain path

[@swagsI]

In what ways negatively. I know there is a lot we still don't know but if you know more please elaborate

[@lisabennett1253]

Gads! I love listening and learning from him but she is annoying! She keeps interrupting. He is very polite about it.

[@gilgayer386]

Legendas para o Brasil

[@raydematio7585]

Lots of whingeing here, it's her job to ask questions, this is TV not an academic lecture

[@juliehoypoy1819]

Sadly this interview was very irritating as that woman interviewer kept talking over top and butting in every time Dr.Doidge spoke

[@Roxy-gn8dj]

Why did you bring him if you could explain everything by yourself???? Sooooo annoying

[@conned]

shes not convinced......

[@bunnysofoxy6113]

The interviewer is terrible! She keeps interrupting him.

[@vfxcinematography3293]

Nonsense

[@dema.7484]

Pllleeeaasse wa want arabic translation of this vid😭😭😭😭💔💔💔

[@josmithhere]

Great but Kind of a teas he sells books & pricey seminars - hmmm agenda?

[@loungydoc]

jo dude ... you're so far off it's not even funny. You are severely misinformed

[@TheVeek192]

So? Why shouldn't he make a living? Do you expect to work for nothing? Buy the book. Maybe it's worth the money.
