Bodies of learning, David, talk to me.

Yeah, it does feel like the glue, doesn't it?

It feels like the glue that holds all kinds of things together.

We've been making connections with previous episodes.

I also feel like I want to do a two-hour podcast about your history of mystical practices.

So, yes, we're very, very excited and honoured to be having this conversation, which we'll be recording very shortly with Guy Claxton.

His third return, he's the most featured person on this podcast.

And Emily Paul has written this really interesting book, Bodies of Learning, How Embodiment Science Transforms Education.

So without further ado, let's get into this conversation.

I feel like we should check in with our bodies, first of all, as a way to just like, you know, recognize this topic that we're about to embark on.

I don't know, Emily, I don't want to put you on the spot, but perhaps you could lead us through a short exercise.

long out-breath is a thing, isn't it?

It's like sends a message to your nervous system that it's the thing that people often do just before they go to sleep, isn't it?

They do the sort of long out-breath and it seems to be just like a, you know, if you're safe enough to sleep now, you're not going to be eaten.

It seems to send like a message to yourself.

Yes.

Yes, indeed.

Well, thank you for that.

So I hope that you're all sitting or standing.

I'm standing personally, comfortably.
