		<description><![CDATA[The Oxford Dictionary defines &#8220;Hypnosis&#8221; as &#8220;the induction of a state of consciousness in which a person loses the power of voluntary action and is highly responsive to suggestion or direction,&#8221; implying that a hypnotised person is powerless, under the control of some powerful hypnotist who exerts their will over their subject. Using that definition, [...]]]></description>

You can, on request, &#8220;pay attention&#8221;, focus your concentration onto something, look more carefully at something. So why don&#8217;t you do that all the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve been asked to &#8216;visualise&#8217; things for a few weeks now, to conjure up images in your mind, it&#8217;s time to address what exactly it meant by the word &#8216;visualise&#8217;. In short, we&#8217;re talking about visual processing, essentially using the area of the brain devoted to visual reasoning, spacial skills. In theory, a blind man [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In &#8220;Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, Betty Edwards suggests a valuable exercise. She asks her readers to select an image at random. We suggest a portrait, a face, but it&#8217;s not important. She recommends her readers, assumed to be naive of artist&#8217;s skills, try to copy that randomly-selected image. Then, after that [...]]]></description>

Visualize a quarter vividly, and imagine vividly that you are going to find the quarter on the street. Then, look for the quarter every time you take a walk, meanwhile continuing to visualize it. See how long it takes you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve learned to examine your awareness of your perception, but you are of course aware of things other than your perceptions. As well as being aware of things you perceive from the world, you&#8217;re also aware of things going on inside your head. You&#8217;re aware of your emotions, your thoughts, your evaluations of yourself. This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Self Awareness is a much deeper topic than just self consciousness. Self awareness is about more than just understanding that you exist, and being able to perceive how you feel. As a complicated human mind, you are constantly building a model of your world in your head. Trying to learn to understand the sensations and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Deeply social species evolve some kind of theory of mind. A way of telling what other individuals are thinking. If that train of thought, or evolutionary pressure, is followed long enough then that creature begins to wonder &#8220;what does that other mind over there think of me?&#8221; This, then, is your public self image.

		<description><![CDATA[Last week we discussed public self image, concluding that your public self image is in other people&#8217;s brains and yet that it&#8217;s put there almost entirely by you, by the ways you communicate with those around you. Very few of us get into many actual fights, and yet the social hierarchy exists. In humans it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Your experience is not of the individual firings of your neurons or the photons hitting your retina or of [...]]]></description>
