The power of our thoughts seems sometimes almost limitless.
Our thoughts are still a mystery to scientists but new studies promise interesting results that people of all ages can find useful in their daily lives.
We have previously seen how our thoughts possess the immense power to change our reality.
Our cognitive and physical abilities are in general limited, but our conceptions of the nature and extent of those limits may need revising. In many cases, thinking that we are limited is itself a limiting factor. There is accumulating evidence that suggests that our thoughts are often capable of extending our cognitive and physical limits.
A study conducted by psychologists Ulrich Weger and Stephen Loughnan reveals that our thoughts can release abilities beyond normal limits. Our thoughts could actually improve our vision.
“Contrary to the assumption that vision worsens with age because of physiological limitations, the experiments we report here tested whether vision can be improved through psychological means,” the scientists write in their paper.
Weger and Loughnan “There seems to be a simple way to instantly increase a person’s level of general knowledge.
Psychologists Ulrich Weger and Stephen Loughnan recently asked two groups of people to answer questions.
People in one group were told that before each question, the answer would be briefly flashed on their screens – too quickly to consciously perceive, but slow enough for their unconscious to take it in.
