Ten (Mostly) New Illusions to Kick Start Your Brain This Morning

By Dr. Mercola

If you’re looking for a fun way to kick start your brain into working just a little harder today, then take a couple of minutes to watch this short video by British psychologist and professor Richard Wiseman.

I love these types of optical illusions as these are a powerful illustration to me how we can be so ABSOLUTELY certain about something we believe to be true, but the reality is that we were tricked and deceived.

Interestingly, many of the drug and biotech companies use similar deceptions to convince the masses so they will continue to purchase their products. Fortunately, most all of you reading this are too wise to fall for their traps.

The selection of these optical illusions are not only are entertaining, but they’ll leave you wondering how — and why — your brain works the way it does and hopefully make you aware that you are susceptible to deception and need to be vigilant. >
