Breaking Free from the Stories We’re Told: A Journey into Prehistory

I’m digging into the connection between our environment, our perceptions, and who we are. I used to think of my body and mind as separate, treating my body like a rental car—bad decisions, lots of pain, and no real understanding of what was going on. But when I started to understand concepts like the extended mind and active inference, I realized how much of my experience was shaped by my surroundings and how I interpreted them. It’s not just about the brain and body; it’s about the whole system we live in. The outside world, our environment, technology—all of it shapes us in ways we often don’t see. And understanding that is freeing. It’s not about being scared by it but about seeing how we can live better, more aware lives. Let’s explore this together.
