It’s All Feelings: Investigating Consciousness From the Brainstem to the Psyche, with Mark Solms 49:32

16d ago49:32

49:32

We often think of our conscious experience as one driven by language. Our thoughts are shaped by words; our emotions processed in conversation. Yet, while language is a sharp tool for expression, the level of detail and nuance it affords us can also get us lost. And like many other animals, we communicate our needs before we’re able to speak. So wh…

The children we once were will always stay with us. And when we drift back to treasured moments from childhood, we find that our play was a great source of growth.
