Sounds like a temporal lobe experience to me...tasty, very tasty...even
tastier than Oreos...Isn't it fun living in a brain that can experience
such stuff?
I've had something similar but I don't think quite the same...it was
more as if I woke up and someone had reprogrammed me in the night and I
could suddenly think in more efficient ways. The first time this
happened (Using meditation as a trigger) I called the resulting person
'Ramonsky 2', because it really did feel that different. Using
biofeedback as a trigger I'm currently 'Ramonsky 4'.
Wouldn't you have just loved to see a brain scan of yourself before and
after?
