The Reality of Mental Time Travel
Anthony Hamilton
Psychologists at Harvard University are using fMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) technology, to enable them to look into the brain as we are thinking. They have concluded that the frontal lobe of our brain is a ‘time machine’. The ability of mental time travel is not only the evolutionary development which enabled our ancestors to thrive in their environment, the regular practice of mental time travel is likely one of the major unrecognized secrets of success. Long misunderstood and maligned as ‘daydreaming’ or ‘frivolous imagining’, mental time travel is the source of human creativity. Its practice is not only the source of personal evolution, happiness and peace of mind. It is also the key to solving the problems facing society in the twenty-first century.
