Dr Thomas R. Verny, author of the Embodied Mind stops by the show to talk about the mind and the brain. Neuroscientists think of the mind, as an epiphenomenon of the brain. In other words, it's a function of the brain. Just like urine is a function of the kidneys, or bile is a function of the gallbladder. I think that the mind is a function of the whole body, because all of these cells work together. We have never been able to locate the mind or consciousness in the brain.
I called my book “The Embodied Mind”, because it's not just the skull mind. It's not just in the brain not just in the head, it’s in the total body, and who knows what happens after we die. It may persist and who knows?
