Scientists and philosophers have been grappling with the idea of consciousness and awareness for a long time. It is a puzzle that is difficult to solve, and some even make a point that studying consciousness should be separated from studying everything else related to our body. Most scientists claim that awareness is direct result […]

Can Consciousness Be Explained by Quantum Physics? New Research – Singularity Hub
Physicist Roger Penrose and anesthesiologist Stuart Hameroff theorized that consciousness should obey the rules of Quantum Mechanics. Our brains are comprised of neurons which in turn contain microtubules that are structured in a fractal pattern. Fractals permit complexity to emerge from simple repeated patterns. Advanced technology, including a scanning tunneling microscope, now makes it […]
To Learn More Quickly, Brain Cells Break Their DNA
Breaking of the strands in our DNA material has been correlated with disease such as cancer, and processes like aging. New research shows that neurons use the same process to speed up learning. In essence, this is a defensive mechanism. When time is critically important in our body’s effort to fight off life-threatening disease, […]
Physics Consciousness And Yoga-Dr SS Mantha – BW Businessworld
Yoga and consciousness are intertwined, and yoga routines enable us to connect to our true self. This self that we explore is what is beyond purely materialistic satisfaction. The practice is ancient, but some researchers are trying to explain it from a different perspective, by using principles of physics. Of particular interest is the physical […]
Is Consciousness Bound by Quantum Physics? We’re Getting Closer to Finding Out – ScienceAlert
Consciousness has long been in the center of scientific curiosity. Scientists from many different disciplines tried to decipher the meaning and the working of consciousness, but quantifying it has always proven itself to be extremely difficult. Now, a pair of scientists, one physicist and one anesthesiologist are trying to provide an answer to this […]
4 Scientific Findings on Mindfulness and Meditation
Four out of five Americans are experiencing stressful days on a regular basis. This high number of stress suffering people is a direct result of the pandemic. In the wake of it, and as a way to cope with it, more people are finding interest in meditation. Although some scientific circles question the benefits […]
To Think Well or Not to? That’s Not the Question
When one is thinking we need to remember that it’s not all Black and White. It’s called Dichotomous thinking and it can be very dangerous for our mental health. There are steps that can be taken if you think like this and the first step is the recognize the way you are thinking. Sometimes […]
Quantum Theory of Consciousness Gains Support From Recent Study – Walter Bradley Center
It has been difficult in finding out how consciousness and quantum mechanics interact with each other because the current testing is only allowed with very low temperatures. The theory is that the tubes that our brain sends chemicals is arranged in a fractal pattern. It is believed that due to this, it uses the […]
Physicists explain how the brain might connect to the quantum realm – Inverse
One question we have been trying to answer for a long time is how is our brain connected with quantum mechanics. The only way we were able to measure it was with very cold conditions that were not suitable for human thought. We have found that fractal patterns are everywhere including our body. Our […]
Stuart Hameroff and Jonathan Powell: The Conscious Connection
The Conscious Connection? What is the separation between body and mind? Can you even know the difference? These are questions people have been asking for centuries. But now with modern sciences and new approaches, perhaps we are getting closer to an actual answer from these questions. Life and conscious experience are complicated things. It […]
