It may be helpful to think of the mind in terms of an analogy, as in: 'Who is minding the store?" If you think about how a store works, there can be lots of people involved in how it functions, but ultimately, there is only one person in charge. Our brains are the same way, we can be aware of many things at once, but can only focus on one at a time. Meditation is a way to practice focusing your brain.

Does salt kill brain cells?

Consuming salt in normal amounts should not have a significant effect on brain cells. However, consuming extremely high levels of salt, such as in cases of salt poisoning, can lead to a condition called hypernatremia, which can cause brain swelling and potentially damage brain cells. It is important to maintain a balanced diet and avoid excessive salt intake.


If you are nearsighted what is wrong with your eyes?

Nearsightedness, or myopia, is a common refractive error where distant objects appear blurry. It occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved, causing light to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. This can be corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.


How much of the brain is used as storage?

Almost the whole entire brain uses storage or memory when it does something. Examples: When we see you may ask yourself the question; how did my brain know that was there? Your brain uses its memory of the world, past experiences, and what it thinks should be there in order to give you vision. When we dream our brain uses memory from our memory storage and mixes non-useful images and ideas together erasing them from our memory, this is why be cant remember all our dreams completely. When we smell our brain uses a its memory in smells and signals the nerves in the nose to smell what we remembered what it smelt like before. Almost everything comes from memory or storage.
