when you can't sleep, eat or function during the day without constant thoughts of the other person...\n\nwhen that person makes you want to become a better person yourself...\n\nwhen being around the other person makes you feel fulfilled and happy...

It means you are either stressed or that you don't have "presence of mind" (which means you aren't thinking about what you're doing because you are busy thinking about other things). It is okay. Just keep a spare set of keys hidden in a safe place.

I don't think that music affects people's minds.  I am so tired of people saying that music affects the way we think.  People accuse music for all the bad things that happen in society and don't bother to look at the real reason as to why things are done and why they happen.  Music is an enhancement to life and is a stress reliever no matter what type of music is listened to.  Music helps people.

Well, generally, how one adapts to changes in the life span--growing older, etc.  Our social circles can stop growing, or shrink, activity level slows, cognitive processing may go slow, and inhibitory processes in thought lessen.  Etc.

It is beyond the dualistic conceptions of mind...\n\nYou can make a rational judgment about it. But our problem is that we make emotional judgments instead. This is what we need to be clear about.\n\nWhen we make emotional judgments, we set up ripples in our minds. These ripples cause larger ripples and soon a storm is brewing. This storm disturbs the mind. In all this we lose touch with the silence in the mind, the peace within. It is only when we can calm these ripples that the mind can reside in its own silence, its own equanimous state. When the mind can rest in its own stillness it can see things as they are. I call this silent mind, "peace-mind."\n\nIf we don't allow the mind to be silent, we make emotional judgments and the we get into trouble. Here is where the battle starts, within ourselves and outside of ourselves.

Then, what is a thought??  We always try to separate the mind from the body.  For instance,  is something a mental or physical problem.  A thought in your mind is a really physical complex interaction that involves neurotransmitters and electrical signals.  So when someone feels pain whether its chronic or acute, yes it is a thought yes there is a specific chain of reaction  that is occuring in the body and head.

The mind is just like the body.  With the body, you can put good or bad stuff in and you'll get visable results;  if you eat only McDonalds, you'll get fat and unhealthy and if you eat fruits/vegies/lean meat then you'll have a healthy body.\n\nThe mind works the same way.  If we <adults & children> fill up with junk like violence/sex/and hopelessness then our minds errode and we usually get depressed or angry.  Likewise, if we turn off the media <tv, music, computer, phones> we can stop junk from coming in...we can even fill it with great things like Plato, science, and God, and get a healthier brain.\n\nI saw video on the news <about a month ago> a story about teenagers who beat up a homless man with baseball bats.  The homeless man dies, and the news reported's psychologist claims that the teens were "Displaced" possibly from the violence in video games or TV.

The human mind is associated with the brain.  The brain tends to use neurons which have previously been used over those which have never been used.  Background assumptions, beliefs, paradigms all tend to prevent new associations with old concepts.

Hypnosis works the best on people who have more ability to dissociate, that is, become detached from their surroundings. Both involve altered states of consciousness and have nothing to do with intelligence. Everyone has the ability to dissociate, but some people have more of the ability, perhaps because they have had more cause to become detached during their lives. Looking at it from a psychological angle, I would say your hypnotisability would have the most to do with your life experiences and consequently the way you react emotionally to different situations. No two people ever have the same experiences and view things in the same way, regardless of IQ.\n\nEdit: To put it more simply, daydreamers (who could be seen as having a "weaker" grip on reality) would likely be easier to hypnotise than more practical people.\n\nOr another way to classify the two groups (more hypnotisable versus less hypnotisable), thin boundary personalities versus thick boundary personalities, the terms being used in relation to dreams and susceptibility to nightmares:\n\n"What differentiates the the two boundary types is a separation between mental process, thoughts and functions. Those with thin boundary type tend to often merge thought with feeling, have a difficulty with focusing on one thing at a time, daydream or fantasize, experience forms of synaethesia, have more fluid sense of self and tend to "merge" more with those who are close to them. Those with thick boundaried personalities have much more separation between what is real and what is imaginary. They tend to have a distinct focus on one thing at a time, differentiate between thoughts and feelings, real and fantasy, self and others, lack strong memories from childhood, well organized and has a strong sense of self."\n\nAgain, nothing to do with intellect, more to do with psychological makeup and emotions.

A lack of oxygen to the brain due to hypoxia can cause difficulty in cognitive function.\n\nThe influence of mind altering drugs is the other popular answer.

The short answer to this is, no.  \n\nAnything which interacts with the chemicals (from caffine to THC and on) affects the reactions in the brain.  It isn't that you couldn't have had those thoughts without the substance, but for whatever reason you may add extra significance to them.

actually it is very possible. many parts of the brain are yet to be discovered. did you know that the way a single person thinks of an out come can directly affect the object or thing that he or she is thinking of. there has been many studies and all have come to our suprise as true the mind can extend out. its your subconsiousnes. the inner mind

usually repetitive, disturbing thoughts, that you have difficulty turning you brain off, and not thinking of them, for me its usually watching anything bad on the news, i can go on for days thinking about what a terrible place the world is, and about all the terrible things happening here on earth.  Look up ocd online.  I think the thoughts vary from person to person.  But, there are many meds available that actually help you to control or stop those awful, obsessive thoughts.
