"I don't think that there is any experience experiment that could tell you if there is a soul that is nonphysical. I think that at the end of the day, this is for a philosophical and metaphysical discussion that could be determined by arguments and not experiments. I am a physicalist. So I think that our mind is magnificent, amazing, and physical. And I agree with you, we can change by changing the way we think. We can influence our body.Let's just think about the placebo. It's probably one of the most robust phenomena we know in medicine, right? They give you a fake pill, and you start to feel better. Why? Because of the way we perceive ourselves. That doesn't mean that we can counteract every disease by thinking positively, but there is a very strong bond between mind and body and brain. And I would argue that everything in that bond happens within the physical domain."How we think, feel, and experience the world is a mystery. What distinguishes our consciousness from AI and machine learning?Liad Mudrik studies high level cognition and its neural substrates, focusing on conscious experience. She teaches at the School of Psychological Sciences at Tel Aviv University. At her research lab, her team is currently investigating the functionality of consciousness, trying to unravel the depth and limits of unconscious processing, and also researching the ways semantic relations between concepts and objects are formed and detected.https://people.socsci.tau.ac.il/mu/mudriklabhttps://people.socsci.tau.ac.il/mu/mudriklab/people/#gkit-popupwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcast
