The Moving Mind
“Our brains evolved to solve the forest.”
— Richard Powers
Contrary to popular belief, our brains are not “thinking” machines; they are complex movement organizers and assimilators, evolved to rapidly assess our surroundings and engage in complex motor sensory tasks in complex environments. Thinking is not really possible without movement, and lots of it. Our minds are extensions of our surrounding environment, where each independent relationship between each part is stimuli that engages our bodies and brains. Diverse, wholly embodied movement is critical for our awareness to flourish.
