Description / Descripción

Good thinking doesn’t just happen in our minds, or even our brains. It involves the whole body, and depends on our awareness of bodily feelings and processes. Deaf to our own bodies we think less well. Come and find out how the science of embodied cognition is turning our understanding of thinking on its head!
