The brain is a human organ responsible for controlling the physical body. Scientists from different centuries have tried to unravel the great secrets of his work. Today there are 7 ways to trick your brain.
Ganzfeld procedure
For the first time they started talking about her in the 1930s. The Gunzfeld procedure was then used in experimental psychology. Today everyone can repeat it. To do this, you must turn on the radio interference. The halves of table tennis balls are glued to the eyes. Within a minute, the subject begins to see hallucinations. Someone hears the dead. The principle of this practice is very simple: when the brain has few sensations, it begins to create its own.
Pain control
Perhaps, many have noticed, based on their own experience, that when you do not see pain, it is felt less. Paradoxically, scientists from Oxford University conducted experiments where the subjects were given binoculars. When they looked at the pain in a reduced size, it subsided.
The Pinocchio illusion
Two chairs are taken and placed one by one. The man in the back seat is blindfolded. Then his hand reaches out to the nose in front of the seated person. The subject begins to stroke two noses: his own and the nose in front of the seated one. After about a minute, the subject will feel that his nose has become larger.
Deception of thinking
The right leg rises a few centimeters from the floor and makes circular movements in a clockwise direction. At this time, the right hand is connected, which draws the number 6 in the air. The left leg will start spinning in the other direction, and there is nothing you can do about it. The fact is that the left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for rhythm and synchronization, controls the right side of the body. The brain is unable to control two opposite movements.
Rubber arm
A rubber hand or an inflated rubber glove is taken. The subject sits at the table, where his own hand is covered with cardboard. Then begin stroking two hands (rubber and real) at the same time. If after a while you hit the rubber hands, then the subject will feel pain. The secret again is to visualize the person.
The sound of the young
There is a sound, a sine wave, which has a frequency of 18,000 Hertz. It is heard only by those who are not yet 20 years old. It is believed that with age, a person loses the ability to hear sounds of weak tones. Teenagers can use this sound as a ringtone on their mobile phone.
Purkinje effect
Once the scientist Jan Purkinje went out into the sun and closed his eyes, and later began to spread his hands in front of him. So he began to see hallucinations. Bright light is capable of creating various images invented by the brain. Later, special glasses were invented that help create such hallucinations.
