  • Visualization is a far more powerful tool than most people realize for problem solving, creativity and even physical performance. Our cognitive 'workspace' is essentially what gives us the ability to manipulate concepts in our mind and to make plans. It's essentially synonymous with our working memory.
    Einstein demonstrates the power of using visualization to solve problems. He visualized what it might be like to travel on a beam of light and used this to 'intuit' the workings of the universe.
    I'm not saying you'll be able to do that, but using a technique called 'Image Streaming' you can enhance your ability to visualize images, sounds and concepts and to work with them in your mind. Not only that, but you may improve verbal fluency and develop key brain regions related to visuo-spatial problem solving. Watch and learn!

    Here's an advanced version of Image Streaming that I've created called "Glimpsing". Hope you like it. So this is the concept: you can take any picture or image of your desired goal or aim from your phone or computer first. Then, you speak out loud every single feature you see while looking at the picture( or you could write them down as a list) if you want. Finally, you take your phone away, closing your eyes or leaving them open, and say those SAME EXACT features that you saw in that picture until your mind recalls those features again. So basically, it's image Streaming and Priming blended together. Hope this helps with those aphantasia issues!!💯👌

    @brendoncca Před 6 lety +87

    The place I used visualization the most was in two places... the first was in the military and specifically SWAT and weapons training. Where visualization could be used in the absence of ammunition. To close your eyes and see every movement and assess yourself and feel of something was off in your movements like drawing your gun or finer details like pulling the trigger without reacting to the ensuing recoil. 10 years plus out of the military I still practice that visualisation just in case i need that skill again.
    Second place it was VITAL wad on my paramedic training. You had a lot of students with limited time and equipment. So often visualisation was the only practice you could get in... feel and see what you are doing. See yourself making mistakes in your mind as you do know on that subconscious level that you stuffed up and how to correct them...
    Thanks

    • @brendoncca
      @brendoncca Před 6 lety +8

      The Bioneer . On SWAT they suggested we practice in front of the mirror to practice our draw and trigger precision. But there was more people than mirrors and I liked solitude to think. So I just started doing it. Then we were also told that skill retention is about 3 months if not kept up to practice. So the only way to practice was to walk and visualise how you would sweep the office or the hq or the parade area or our pain garden. So you constantly visualized threats... what would your reaction be and take downs and stopping the threat. This constant visualisation had really helped. Even if i haven't shot in years thanks to visualisation I still get a good grouping.
      It's just always been my way of remembering things... by making theory practical in my head.

    if you wrote a book all about maximizing abilities, i'd totally read it. so much content on this channel it'd be cool to have the best of the best information all in a single book... also on the lucid dreaming thing, it might help you if you look at your hands throughout the day and ask "am i dreaming?" because your hands will likely be with you in your dreams so it can serve as a reality check kind of thing to help you become aware your dream state... also keep up all the good work, i'd seriously like to see you make that book btw, youre one of the few people ive seen where youre knowledge and physical success makes me go "damn", not really jealousy cause i admire your success and respect that you share what you know for free, but damn i need to step up my game... ps if you havent read them yet youd probably really like The Art of Expressing the Human Body by Bruce Lee, The Miracle of Breath by Andy Caponigro, and Can We Live 150 Years? by Mikhail Tombak, especially the breath thing is really interesting, if you breathe slower than 15 sec inhale, 15 sec exhale you almost immediately enter into a higher state of consciousness, i learned that from some other yoga book and it totally works, some people can breathe one breath an hour and theyre basically in a psychedelic trip all the time, if you ever investigate the connection between oxygen and other chemical production like tryptaphan, seratonin, testosterone, dimethyltryptamine, etc i would reallyyy like to see what you discover

    I began practicing lucid dreaming as a child, years before I encountered the term.
    I'll go back even further. I accidentally discovered self hypnosis at around age 5. I was staring at myself in the bathroom mirror and found my mind disassociated from my body. I had a sense of leaving my physical form. It was unsettling, but not frightening. I tried it a few more times after that, but decided it wasn't an experience I enjoyed.
    As to lucid dreaming, I've always had vivid dreams, even nightmares. I found it necessary to take control of the direction of these dreams and steer myself toward wakefulness.
    On one occasion in particular, I remember seeing a factory brightly lit in the middle of a vast, dark field. Decades later, while driving along Highway 27 south of Lake Okeechobee in the middle of the night, I saw the same factory again. It was a sugar cane processing plant, which operates 24 hours a day.
    Our minds are ours to control, to be sure. But they also travel both forward and backward in time. Rather than fighting this, it's sometimes worthwhile to follow it, and see where it goes.:)

      You had deja vu and believed you saw that factory, trusting unequivocally in the brain isn't good, because our brains are fallible, you have convinced yourself to trust your deja vu, and even mis-rememberings of your past experience. People even make up memories because of how fragmented you are, some of those specific memories of your childhood may not have existed, but rather have been a mosaic of memories and falsehoods and deja vu events.

      @Boris Sagaert lucid dreaming is hard for most people & part of it is needing to remember your dreams and most people seem to have issue with that. there are lots of techniques & approaches so you should probably do some research and find the best one for you. keep in mind that its a long term goal as like i said it's not easy for most people & while you are trying you will have to abstain from booze & weed as they both inhibit dreaming some prescription drugs make dreaming harder as well so asking your doctor or researching any meds you take. also psychedelics may use up some of the chemicals your brain uses for dreaming. some people also think being healthy and having a good diet helps them reach lucidity in their dreams. For myself it seemed to happen occasionally when i was younger but not since I became an adult.

    one way to do image streaming is to make the multisensory verbal description in mind,
    not out loud. but this has an advantage/disadvantage, it can put you to sleep (it's good for insomniacs). the advantage/disadvantage depends on the purpose you want. But with proper training you get to control it. and in time it becomes better than lucid dreaming because you can use it whenever you want, not just when you sleep.

    My only problem with image streaming is finding somewhere to do it without everybody thinking I'm nuts, so I need a private place.
    Also I tried to explain image streaming to a couple of dumbo's. As soon as I mentioned visualization this guy interjected "that's manifestation I know all about it" I didn't bother explaining any further.
    No image streaming is not manifestation - if bad or ugly stuff comes into your minds eye so be it, that's what you describe. For image streaming to work you do not will what to see. You let your subconscious show you stuff. Most of the things you see will be weird anyway. Surreal subconscious things. If that changes the more you do it I dont know.
    Image streaming strengthens the network connections between conscious & unconscious parts of the brain this can also be done with mind mirror EEG training. A completely different technique.
    Manifestation is based upon positive visualization. But if you dont image stream first you are unlikely to be able to visualize well in the first place. Again a different thing altogether from image streaming.
    Autogenic training takes much longer & has parallels with image streaming in the advanced meditative stages.
    Compared to Image Streaming, Mind Mirror neurofeedback & Advanced Autogenics - Manifestation is not a real cognitive technique at all but a fad
    On Lucid dreams I have them & find they are linked to my meditation sessions during the day. Maybe being conscious in Theta does it? When in the dream something weird will happen, you will think hey wait a minute that simply cant happen. Ha haa this must be a dream. Then that's it you become lucid - fully aware its a dream & can do what ever you want.
    If however you accept the illogical thing. Think hey that's weird it cant be possibly happening. But there it is what do you know & go about your dream business - the lucidity wont come. So an epiphany is required.
    Epiphany is a great thing ;-)

    Hello! I use a Dictaphone for most things I want to remember. I hold it like a mobile when I'm recording so that I don't look like a knob. I could actually use my mobile but I prefer a separate device. I even have one of those ear bud microphone things to plug into it, but when I use that outside then I really do look like a knob!

    Wow! Went to a place with a lake and fields with horses today and just reconstructed my walk back... ok, that's probably not exactly what I'm supposed to do... but it was fascinating nonetheless. I said "We're just atoms...amorphous configurations of atoms everywhere..." It made me philosophical and less concerned about what goes on beyond what I can see... ie imagining bad outcomes to present situations which are way beyond my control. Enjoyed my first go a lot. Thanks Bioneer.

    I stumbled on Image Streaming as a means of possibly treating aphantasia. Aphantasia is the inability to visualize things in your minds eye. For me when I close my eyes and try to imagine something, I don't see anything. No images. Imagine my shock to learn a month ago that people actually do see things and there's a name for this condition. I'm excited to practice this and see if it works to give me actual mental images. Great content and I appreciate your input!

    Have you experimented with the Tibetan techniques for lucid dreaming? They worked for me. The main practice was just a number of times a day, stop, look around, and say ‘is anything out of sorts here?’ And when you keep practicing you will wind up doing it in a dream, and you will realize you were in a dream. I woke up in a museum dream, and I picked up this vase and studied it, and my mind was completely blown, the detail was astounding. Fun stuff. Thanks for the vid!

I then look down and realized I have no hands or body I am floating with nothing supporting me I can't feel gravity or the ground I look behind for the first time and see a small hole through which I could see myself sleeping at this moment I felt connected then woke up.

    Lucid dreaming is so fascinating. One time I was dreaming of riding my bike and I looked at my hands. They were oldly far away and small. I started to become lucid. Then it switched I was in an Arab area again on my bike. I looked at my hands and they were small and fuzzy. What was strange was it sort of felt like I was struggling to become lucid. As if I felt my mind working hard to become lucid. My reasoning is because I just felt it in my dream. I started to get it a little but my dream was too strong and I wasn't fully aware. I was literally pulled from my lucidity into dreaming normal. Which was very strange but I think quite interesting. If anyone reads this do you have any weird experience like this?

    Like shift work I bodyweight training you could do something very similar to practice visualisation.
    Let x be an object or a place that you can imagine vividly at least
    Then y will be a variable,
    X is a constant .
    So use the equation x+y to keep on imagining new things.(by the way the plus does not mean you combine the two objects it means how will the image look when you keep the object on top of one another etc etc.)

    What I find is that our subconscious is always visualizing and that we just have to tune into it by turning off the filter that the logical side of our brain puts on. I think that’s why visualization is so powerful and real in dreams because there’s no logical thinking to them.

    Neural Language Programming (NLP) has a lot to say about visualization. While learning about NLP I learned of a research project wherein 3 groups of people were used: group 1) consisted people who shot baskets, group 2) where people who visualized shooting baskets and of course group 3) was a control group and were told nothing about the project. After a period of time they were brought together and told to shoot baskets. As is predictable group 1) did very well while group 3) did relatively terrible. The interesting part was, group 2) though not doing as well as group 1) they performed tremendously better then group 3). In the end it was discerned that the difference between group 1) and group 2) was only that group 2) had not made the mind body connection.
    That is ... if I remember correctly.

    Not sure if you still read comments from a video you made so long ago. But a very powerful exercise I perform regularly is to imagine objects in my head and rotate them 3 dimensionally inspecting them from unusual angles. A more advanced form of this is to construct objects out of multiple components fitting them together in unusual ways and visualizing there boundaries and volume in the void of the mind.

    To improve your visualization greatly. Do Math but instead of numbers use some sort of object. For example: 2x3 would be a normal problem without images. But if you would do:🥈🥈x🥉🥉🥉it would be 6 bronze medals. Don’t forget to say it in your mind or repeat it out loud. Either way works.

    I have a theory with intelligence and problem-solving.
    I see the big components as being focus (to stay focused on what you're doing and tune out the irrelevant), working memory (to hold more pieces of information in your mind), visualization (to be able to manipulate those pieces of information better and faster), and finally, fitness and nutrition (to be able to more efficiently "power" the brain).
    Combine all those and you have a great general-purpose brain-training program. Obviously this is a bit oversimplified, and one should add in more specific things that one wants to brain-train, but I think those are the core things to train. Gaining knowledge and improving memory helps too, because then you can recall more pieces of information to manipulate in your problem-solving. And IMO, all of these would help learning too, for the same reasons.
    Focus -> Meditation.
    Working Memory training -> Dual N Back or similar.
    Visualization -> Image Streaming.
    Fitness and nutrition -> Regular exercise and good nutrition.
    Gaining knowledge and memory training.

    In the modern world we are bombarded by visual images. Consequently, there is usually a stream of junk floating across the surface of the mind and this junk often intrudes. I find it helps to switch to other senses, and especially olfaction. So I try to imagine scents and smells rather than visual forms. These are deeper memories connected to more ancient levels of the mind, less polluted by our TV and screen-saturated environment. Then you can move to sounds, tactile senses etc. It helps.

    For lucid dreaming, if you wake up early in the morning and still remember your dream, simply don’t wake up your inner dialog, don’t try to remember anything verbally, and don’t analyze anything. Simply pick a picture from your dream and focus on its details without describing them. I’m about 5 minutes you will sink back into the dream with some control over it
