At the BRAIN ACADEMY, we are passionate about the human mind! We are extremely excited to have you here. We’ve been growing at an amazing rate and if you’re not already one of them, we hope you will soon join our 200.000+ students in over 190 countries.
Once we understand that our brains plays a critical role in almost every single area of our life, from learning, playing and working, to aptitude, personality and memory, it’s hardly surprising that listening to our brain has an impact on everything we do. By understanding how our brain works, we can adapt our behavior to it.

Yes, non-alcoholic beer with a ham sandwich has really kept me on the straight and narrow. 60 days now without alcohol. And I'm not alone, as the grocery stores keep running out of O'douls!
That immediate result I know firsthand. My parents weren't big on spanking, but I went to a school that used it (a Christian one who believed in it fully due to that stupid verse of using the "rod of correction" which they took as beating us with a paddle). Everything at home changed after my second-grade teacher told my parents how my behavior changed right after I got paddled- uh, yeah, because my butt was in intense pain, I'll do whatever you ask of me after that! She told them where to get a freaking paddle, and to use it on me! So, on her advice they did, so I then started getting paddled at home too! My poor butt felt like it was just a beating bag. It gets worse too. Thanks to that school being so paddle happy the kids there ended up figuring out how to get other kids paddled (swats) even when they didn't deserve it. In 4th grade, I watched a girl steal from our teacher. She concocted such a story of me doing it (straight out lying that she had seen me do it) that I ended up being the one not only punished, but severely punished (3 swats). It's nuts how things happen in life...
No disrespct, but this is the crudest and most wrong explanation of chess I have ever heard. Beth Harmon references don't do much of backing them up either.
Thanks to being Spanked, I now lie to avoid conflict and I have a crippling fear of upsetting people. Hitting kids doesn’t make them good people. It just teaches them to lie because they learn early on that being honest gets you hurt.
I feel like a complete failure as a parent. I won't ever do it again but how do i un do the damage it has caused on my child. Still age six. Still a happy child but it has affected self esteem a bit. I feel awful. 😢
if you ever went to far you should apologize to your child, having a long good conversation with them may help a lot, tell them that you love them and that you only get mad because you love them and want them to turn out good. a conversation can make a big diffirence, my parents never apoligized if they did something wrong even if they knew it was wrong, i never forgot and never forgave them. hope this helps. good luck and its a good sign that your daughter is still a happy child. Remember, your a great parent and only discipline your child when it fair and wont make your kid hate you.
My dad threw my head into a brick wall when I was 13 cause I said shouted “no” at him. He’s a Narcissist. He also beat me and my siblings with a belt because he wanted to control us. We got in trouble over petty things, even triggering his repressed anger
My biggest takeaway from the movie was that Riley had constructed her self-image to look like a snowflake. Children and narcissists do this, they selectively remember only what confirms their self-image. Pivotal in the movie, as Riley matured she began to judge herself based on her actual actions the way an adult does
I love how accurately you presented the topic, the quality of the videos is improving a lot! Your combination of humourous and factual phrases makes the video very easy to follow and understand. You make the complicated topics simple. Go Greg!Keep up with the nice work!
I watched the movie with my 5 year old. After that i saw my daughter's mood changes quickly and she lets herself screem or be sad or be disgust with almost no limits. When I told her she can have control over her emotions she told me no, there are things in her head that tell her what to do and she can't change it. It is not her, it is them. Then I noticed where the problem is coming from and tried to explain that inside out is just a movie and it is not real. She can have control over her emotions. She can have control over everything. She is the one in charge. Not the talking voices in her head. One of my friends also told me the same thing. She told me her daughter, also 5, had problems at school which again she said it is not me, someone in my head tells me what to do, her mom didn't let her watch inside out again and the problem goes away and her daughter goes back to herself.
If i have children i will never hit them or verbally abuse them ,i will discipline them with my right words, i will teach them that violence is never yhe answer. But i will never get married in the first because my parents has traumatized me enough
When I was 11 a school friend of mine stated he was going to start smoking to improve his social image. I said David you start smoking at 11 you will be dead by 50. He replied 50 is 3 and 1/2 lifetimes away. Well he did and he did. I watched his wife’s Facebook account it started with the mourning and then a few years later the excitement of new romance with a man who resembled her dead husband. I say this at 62 I recently played with an app called death clock you put in your lifestyle and it forecasts the year of your death. Now I tried my own circumstances with and without alcohol. The forecast with alcohol I die at 85 without alcohol 99. 85 is only 23 years away. So I have given up alcohol it’s a no brainer. They say the quickest way to get someone to give up smoking is to give them a positive cancer diagnosis. I hope this message helps someone. After David’s death I photocopied his death notice and had them laminated I keep a copy on me every now and then I see a cool school boy smoking I give them a copy. I think David has saved a number of people. A final thought have you ever seen a science fiction program where people time travel. They do the tiniest thing then travel forward in time and the world has totally changed. Giving up drink today will do that for you.
My dad spanked me with a belt for any little thing I did. As time went on the spankings increased. now I have become rebellious at a very young age. At 15 I stood up to him and told him he would never hit me again.Iwas wondering why I had such low esteem and no self-confidence. All this time I thought it was my fault.
It's a form of reinforcement. The idea is that we all learned what a hot stove feels like, therefore we won't willfully put our bodies on one. Whippings or other physical disciplines hijack that same function of learning. Its effectiveness varies because not all humans handle it the same. Some people turn out perfectly fine, some turn out bad, others like me are somewhere in between. There isn't one method superior to disciplining kids because they're all different, and if we figured it out, we definitely would've been doing it already. Also, there's a difference between abuse and whippings lol. In the Black community, abuse is you basically beating your child to near death on multiple occasions. In the White communities (at least in America) Spanking your child with your hand is considered abuse. So, it's honestly a pretty varied concept
When I was 17, I went from coming 3rd last in my class in Maths to coming 1st. All I did was do my homework and read the textbook every night for re 20 minutes, and something clicked. I found that being good at maths helped me solve life problems a lot easier. At the same time, I have found some dumb mathematicians who although they might be good at maths are hopeless at logic tho logic is included in maths studies. They did not transfer those skills over, for example in the case of religion. Therefore, brainwashing or conditioning can be a stronger force than learning new skills until the conditioning is overwritten with something new or better. Maybe in the case of mathematics, if someone is good at it, they tend to just keep it for that skill rather than use it to transfer to other areas of their life. Btw this doesn't only relate to jigsaw puzzles, it relates to board games as well 🙂
I love doing jigsaw puzzles for all the reasons you mention. I'm always in flow state when I'm puzzling and I absolutely love pattern recognition. I also notice the dopamine hits. Overall, it's very pleasurable.
Oh heck No!!! The breaking glass. Thats cruel. LoL I was a Marine who went everywhere with helicopters. We would slide down the middle. Or rappel out the sides. I was so scared everytime. I just didn’t show it.
I have been hit once or twice only for telling my nan the health risks with drinking redbull, smoking cigarettes, not drinking enough water and only eating sandwiches because it hurt her feelings to be told that those habits were detrimental to her health she started crying so mu mum who was sitting in the back of the car full force whacked me across the head it didn't make me want to stop talking about the health risks and all that happened it i got a headache and wanted to act out violently in retaliation
People say spanking doesn't work but i'm an Asian 11 year old kid and i never have a tantrum because of the spanking, so i don't get why a bunch of Americans think "SPANKING IS WRONG" when it clearly isn't
My friend killed himself because of being hit i don't see how you a eleven year old who is not technically old enough to be on this app.can say that a form of punishment that wouldn't be used on a dog (which you lot probably eat) is not detrimental to a child
@@MidlandTrainspotter3 Did not see that coming, i sorta meant if its done correctly, if its abuse like if the kid didnt do anything wrong then that aint right
Thank you for sharing your encouraging story! I am on Day 88. Like you, I was never a heavy, or problem, drinker, but felt it affected my mood and outlook in a negative way. I have also discovered alcohol -free beer, with Sam Adams, Just the Haze being my favorite. It is great to be able to enjoy the flavor and the suds, but without the foggy brain afterwards.
100 DAYS AS WELL. NO ALCOHOL UNLESS IT'S A SPECIAL OCCASION. JUICE & WATER ROTATION GOT ME THROUGH ALONG WITH PRAYER & WORSHIP. OF COURSE WITH GOD FIRST OF ALL.
I can make up so many disciplines without physical contact. 1. Push-ups 2. Writing their names 10 times 3. Sit ups 4. Add extra chores to their list 5. 1 minute planks 6. If ya want you can spend money on your kid and give them karate lessons, they teach their kids self confidence and discipline. 7. Take away their phones 8. Make them read books of their current level. 9. 2 laps around the house. 10. Give them extra vegetables and fruits for dinner and no junk food for a month. Give them discipline that will actually improve their lives and life style, make them buff and healthy and teach them good morals, so many options and good example to make your kids good adults for society.
Nothing you wrote is disciplining a child we punishing a child with something the child is 99% of the time is already doing isn't punishing them but rewarding them. Making a child to eat more vegetables isn't a punishment, making a child run laps isn't a punishment, and making your child do push up, sit-ups and so on it's a punishment but an activity no wonder their are more kids these days ending up getting in trouble with the law coming out as disrespectful brats, violent and so in because of parents like y'all who rather rewards kids for their bad behaviors then punishing them
IMO these are not so good examples of punishment. If anything these will make kids view healthy behaviors as punishment. When I was a kid, I was borderline hyperlexic and loved vegetables for instance. Making kids read books, exercise and eat healthy food will make them think of those activities as inherently “less fun”. I think that reading a book about what they did with an interesting plot or watching a movie that will make them emphasize is a better activity. If I were a parent, I would let my kid express why they chose to say or do that action after calming down and make them question their previous mindset. If they did something severe, I would take away privileges while making them understand why, to remove any potential vindictive or “revenge -seeking “feelings. My goal would be to raise human beings with critical thinking skills, not mindless robots. So I would put less emphasis on “obedience “ and more on developing good habits, responsibility, respect for others, self-respect, intelligence, emotional regulation, and compassion.
They have done brain scans of conservatives and liberals and can predict with a 71% accuracy a persons political leanings. Conservatives predictably show larger then normal and more activity in the amygdala. Liberals show increased activity in a central gyrus used in taking in new information.
