We Eat With Our Eyes? (I use my mouth)

Just saw this on the news.

testers made jello in three different colors but only one flavor and did taste testing.

the red one was always associated by test subjects with what we would normally think.

(Cherry, strawberry, watermelon)

the blue color was connected to blueberry

the yellow was lemon

when the test subjects were asked if they believed all the colors were only one flaver they said NO.

what this affirms to me is how our minds can be fooled and brainwashed.

If you think you can not quit smoking?

Change your mind and change your outcome!

Hello, My name is Dale. I was quit 18 months before joining this site and had participated on another site during that time. I learned a lot there and brought it with me. I joined this site the first week of August 2008. I didn't pressure myself to quit. HOW I QUIT I didn't count, I didn't deny myself to get started. When I considered quitting (at a friends request to influence his brother to quit), I simply told myself to wait a little longer. No denial, nothing painful. After 4 weeks I was down to 5 cigarettes from a pack a day. The strength came from proving to myself, I didn't need to smoke because I normally would have smoked. Simple yes? I bought the patch. I forgot to put one on on the 4th day. I needed it the next day but the following week I forgot two days in a row I put one in my wallet with a promise to myself that I would slap it on and wait an hour rather than smoke. It rode in my wallet my first year.There's nothing keeping any of you from doing this. It doesn't cost a dime. This is about unlearning something you've done for a long time. The nicotine isn't the hard part. Disconnecting from the psychological pull, the memories and connected emotions is. :-) Time is the healer.
