1 BODY = BRAIN Part 1: The Embodied Self The Embodied Self 1 Roadmap Wisdom of the Body How You Become Who You Are How You Change Basis Process Influences Self = YOU ARE HERE 2 THE EMBODIED SELF copyright 2012 Amanda Blake. 3

2 WHERE WE VE BEEN SO FAR Your brain is distributed throughout your entire body Body-Brain shapes around essential nutrients according to environment and life experience Through LTP & the establishment of neural networks what fires together, wires together learning = chemical, structural, physical changes that shape your body-brain 4 MEMORY Explicit Implicit Process conscious unconscious Info Types Limbic Structure hippocampus cognitive facts / info / autobiographical mind verbal/semantic description of operations description of procedures emotional conditioning / responses body sensory automatic skills automatic procedures amygdala Maturity around 2-3 years old from birth Adapted from The Body Remembers by Babette Rothschild & many similar charts 5 AMYGDALA & HIPPOCAMPUS 6

3 ARMORING Neural networks don t end in a vacuum! They innervate muscle, tissue, organs Patterns of neural firing become patterns of physical holding Patterns of physical holding become patterns of action & behavior Patterns get wired into us: not just our nervous system but our whole system 7 PERCEPTION Person_Outline_4.aspx Image source butterflies-insects/bee/ image source image source 8 BIOLOGY IS PERCEPTION image source image source 9

4 BODY & PERCEPTION Your body is an instrument of perception That instrument is physically shaped by life experience your entire distributed nervous system adapts to the life you ve lived That shape determines how you see the world affects the possibilities you do and can see 10 SOCIAL & EMOTIONAL LANGUAGE ACQUISITION /06/01/buzz-media-grows/ear-listening/ Interpretive possibility Action possibility 11 BODY & ACTION Through implicit memory & armoring, the person you are is inherently embodied predominant mood identity relational defaults posture gestures strengths limitations actions Your body is the instrument through which you act The instrument inevitably affects the action determines the actions that are easily accessible to you, & those you miss or imagine are impossible 12

5 THE BIG IDEA Brain & body shape around essential nutrients & life experience LTP, implicit memory and armoring create an embodied self Your body is your lens of perception & your instrument of action The embodied self invariably affects interpretations & behavior 13 FIELDWORK How does this view of the embodied self change or deepen your understanding of embodiment? What does this suggest to you about the role of embodied learning in your work? What do you see now about how behavior comes to be embodied? 14 SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHY Carter, R, et. al.
