We’re not just brains on a stick; we have bodies; self-awareness includes being aware of our flesh.

In this week’s mindfulness episode, Western students Shayanne and Jocelyn join Mike to talk about embodiment. It’s so easy for us to live in our heads, to think of ourselves (and others) as brains on sticks. But what if we were to imagine our embodied existence as a gift? What opportunities might this give us for self-awareness? This week, listen in on our recent conversation and consider what your body tells you about who you are.
