			<description><![CDATA[A flickering candle, the sound of surf, beating drums, psychotropic
plants - those can all be seen as early “devices” for altering mental
states and consciousness. Now, there is a wide range of much more
sophisticated devices, software and smart drugs designed to enhance
awareness and cognitive abilities, which may or may not work.<br/>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<img title="" alt="" src="http://talentdevelop.com/images/pills2.jpg" align="left" border="0" vspace="5" width="60" height="48" hspace="11"/>A study also found that 4 percent of students&#8212;and on some campuses, up
to a whopping 25 percent&#8212;admitted to using drugs to improve academic
performance. For people with attention-deficit disorder (ADD),
stimulants like Ritalin and Adderall (a form of amphetamine) clearly
improve intellectual performance. But do they boost brainpower for people without ADD&#8212;and if so, is such
"cognitive enhancement" an appropriate use of these drugs?<br/>]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Foundations of Paraliminal Technology]]></title>
			<link>http://talentdevelop.com/articlelive/articles/765/1/Foundations-of-Paraliminal-Technology/Page1.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[<img title="" alt="" src="http://www.learningstrategies.com/Uploads/Peak_Performance5.jpg" align="left" border="0" width="83" height="83" hspace="11"/>Paraliminal learning sessions are audio CDs. Each one presents creative
new ideas to help individuals overcome internal obstacles and achieve
personal and professional goals. "Para" is the Latin prefix meaning "beyond". "Liminal" refers to the
"limen" or "threshold" of conscious awareness. The term literally
means, "beyond the threshold of conscious awareness". Supporting technologies include Suggestive-Accelerative Learning and
Teaching Methods, Whole Brain Learning, Imagery, Suggestion, Relaxation
and Neuro-Linguistic Programming.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<img title="" alt="" src="http://talentdevelop.com/images/RBranson.jpg" align="left" border="0" vspace="5" width="71" height="60" hspace="11"/>How often have you heard someone boast that they had worked 70 hours last week? Were you impressed and envious or did you think the speaker was either exaggerating or inefficient? Why do some take pride in proving that their work is more effortful, difficult, or even painful than that of others? In too many cases, this need to feel indispensable comes at the expense of one&#8217;s health and happiness.<br/>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<img title="" alt="" src="http://talentdevelop.com/images/cdanes3.jpg" align="left" border="0" height="91" hspace="11" vspace="5" width="82"/>"My therapist gives me
permission to accept that I'm human."

      

      Actor Claire Danes also explained, "I
finally realized after years of therapy.. that you can encourage
yourself to move further in a nurturing way." Taking care to "encourage yourself to move further" is, of course,
something that people typically choose to manage on their own, but a
counselor or therapist can help us do it more fully and effectively. <br/> ]]></description>

			<link>http://talentdevelop.com/articlelive/articles/462/1/Odd-Behavior-And-Creativity-May-Go-Hand-in-hand/Page1.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[
New research on individuals with schizotypal personalities – people
characterized by odd behavior and language but who are not psychotic or
schizophrenic – offers the first neurological evidence that they are
more creative than either normal or fully schizophrenic individuals,
and rely more heavily on the right sides of their brains than the
general population to access their creativity.<br/> ]]></description>

resiliency in individuals and that giftedness increases vulnerability.
There is empirical and theoretical evidence to support both views. <br/> ]]></description>
