More on critical thinking: what's wrong with our brains
Well, there ' s not necessarily anything wrong with your gray matter, that ' s an evaluative judgment. But it evolved to be functional for apes on the African savanna and that ' s not the world we live in now.

Neither are our memories.People have written whole books about the myriad ways in which we fool ourselves. In my recent series on clini...

10+1 Commandments For Companies Developing Wearable Health Trackers
Throughout the last couple of years, I have tested and used about 150 devices and gadgets that measure health parameters or vital signs. From the very first Fitbit to A.I.-driven portable ultrasounds, the evolution is real, and I am delighted to have had the opportunity to watch it first-hand.
I also use a dozen health trackers to live healthily on a daily basis. Even before the wearable revolution started to unfold – just as I described in The Guide to the Future of Medicine -, I used data in an Excel spreadsheet to know more about my health and boost my motivation. Nowadays, it is unimaginable for me to go out...

How to Shift Into a New Reality Faster
Last night I had a vivid dream where Rachelle and I were students in a spirituality seminar. The theme was about embodying your higher self. We were the only two people who showed up for it, waiting for the instructor to arrive. I realized that I showed up in my pajamas, and I thought to myself, Well that makes sense because my higher self surely likes pajamas. I don’t recall any part of the dream where I deliberately dressed that way, and my clothing morphed into a different outfit later in the dream, but that’s the nature of dreams. In a dream the flow of events can be very fluid and flexible.
