080 - Thinking Beyond the Brain: Exploring the "Extended Mind" (Part 1)

Over the next two weeks of Coach Up's, we'll be diving into the work of science writer Annie Murphy Paul and her book "The Extended Mind," which explores the ways in which our bodies and our environments impact our thinking. (This is the book we are currently reading in The Growth Equation Academy's book club. If you'd like to learn more about The Academy, click the link below.) Today, we're going to learn about "embodied cognition:" how our bodies impact our thoughts. More specifically, you'll learn how bodily sensations and physical movement can help you manage emotions, enhance creativity, and problem-solve."The Extended Mind" by Annie Murphy Paulhttps://anniemurphypaul.com/books/the-extended-mind/Join The Growth Equation Academy today. 40% off for a limited time!https://the-growtheq-academy.mn.co/If you are enjoying FAREWELL, do us a huge favor: text your favorite episode to three people so they can enjoy it, too.

Om Podcasten

FAREWELL, a Growth Equation podcast, is about performance, giving you the proven, evidence-based habits and strategies that, if practiced consistently, will help you do and feel good, cultivate a healthy mind and body, and perform your best on the things you care about most. There will be two episodes per week: one longer episode featuring either an interview between host Clay Skipper and athletes, coaches, psychologists, and authors, among others, or a roundtable between Clay, Brad Stulberg, and Steve Magness, where the three discuss and share insights on news and topics related to performance, health, and wellness; and one shorter episode, called “The Coach Up,” which is basically a 1-on-1 coaching session, explaining, in 10-15 minutes, a performance-related tool or idea and how to apply it to your own life.
