Ceenesscular is a pokemon that has reduced its body to the bare essentials; bundles of muscle with which to fight and a brain and a heart to ensure those muscles work. With no other organs to worry about, the delay between thinking and doing are lightning quick and a Ceenesscular has reflexes faster than near enough any other pokemon. Reducing its body even further, with only its gargantuan brain and even more bundles of muscle, a Ceenessensei can overwhelm opponents with rapid strikes and excellent prediction. Being little more than an exposed brain they are actually quite delicate, proving to be all the more reason to out-predict and overcome a foe as quickly as possible. I’m not going to update movepools with gen-9 stuff but I would have been tempted to give these guys fillet away. — Ability Info — — Attack Info —

Santiago Ramón y Cajal was born on May 1, 1852. A Spanish neuroscientist, pathologist, and histologist specializing in neuroanatomy and the central nervous system. He and Camillo Golgi received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1906. Ramón y Cajal was the first person of Spanish origin to win a scientific Nobel Prize. His original investigations of the microscopic structure of the brain made him a pioneer of modern neuroscience. Hundreds of his drawings illustrating the arborizations ("tree growing") of brain cells are still in use, since the mid-20th century, for educational and training purposes.

Spinal Reflexes || Unconventional Senses and Sensory Attributes

❯ ❯ Spinal Reflexes

Also not considered among the traditional senses, reflexes are important and effective components of sensory stimulus-reaction complexes. Reflexes are involuntary or unintentional (uncontrolled). Each type of reflex response is initiated by sensory stimuli relayed from any of the other major senses. Most importantly, the stimulus itself excites specialized sensory receptors that respond unambiguously to a certain type, quality, or intensity of stimulation.

Interestingly, reflexive actions receive their signals from the spinal cord. This makes them considerably faster than one's normal reactions because they bypass the traditional neural pathway (the brain). Not to say the brain is uninvolved. The brain continuously builds, adapts, and influences spinal circuitry, in both short- and long-term development, and many spinal reflexes operate simultaneously as a result. An overview of the main types of spinal reflexes will include: stretch reflex (muscle contraction), crossed-extensor reflex (opposite limb compensating for loss of support), withdrawal reflex (nociceptive reflex, protecting the body from pain), and autogenic inhibition reflex (negative feedback mechanism to control muscle tension).

"The spinal cord is the simplest and most technically accessible part of the mammalian [central nervous system]. Thus, spinal cord reflexes, the brain's influence over them, and the spinal cord plasticity this influence produces provide the basis of a powerful experimental protocol for studying the mechanisms and substrates of learning." (Encyclopedia of Neuroscience)

My psychologist said some really interesting things to me today as she always does but she was the first one to really care and try to explore my massive issues with proprioception- never being able to understand where my body is in space especially if I’m walking or standing on the ground with something in my hand like a cup of tea- I always feel like I’m falling or about to pass out.

She explained that the brain is a part of the central nervous system which comprises of the brain and spinal cord, the vagus nerve etc. I also have always walked on my toes for 25 years and the sole of the foot contains 70+ nerves adding extra sensory sensitivity as I’m now learning to walk on my feet.

She recommended working on activating my vagus nerve, energy medicine, possibly reflexology.

Finally someone that didn’t just shrug me off

MS: nineteen reasons to not let go

A few days ago, I was reminded that 19 years ago, I was diagnosed with MS and trigeminal neuralgia. In the back of my mind, it feels like forever, but like everyone who goes through life-changing or traumatic events, you can remember every little detail of that day, whether you like it or not. In the grand scheme of things, so, nineteen years seems like 19 hours ago. Continue reading MS: nineteen…
