Even if it is Christmas I've been in the English school which is located in Omotesando, Tokyo to having attended a Group Talk lesson.
Omotesando is well-known for the Christmas light. The rows of Keyaki trees from Harajuku station to Omotesando station were all lit up by millions and millions of tiny light bulbs.
They are so beautiful. And all people who are walking through Omotesando seem happy!
Happy Christmas!
What I have learnt at Group Talk lesson today is some new vocabulary; hearsay, savvy, paradigm effect, subconscious and epilepsy.
You may wonder what is the theme of the lesson.
Actually the theme was Christmas however we talked about brain and how the words which you speak influence you, people or things.
My teacher told us some very compelling research into negative and positive words and how they affect the steamed rice.
They placed two plates of steamed rice in the same environment.
They were saying one rice negative words such as you're discussing or ugly and saying another rice positive words like you'er beautiful or thank you very much.
And then, the rice hearing negative words went off whereas another rice hearing positive words became being fermenting and smelled good.
And someone said"I have offen heard this kind of stories but they are all from hearsay.
There are no evidences."
How do you think whether words influence you or not?
