Dr. Dennis Proffitt: Perception - How Our Bodies Shape Our Minds
from The Coaching Lab: Evidence-Based High Performance & Wellbeing · host Catalyst Coaching Institute
Seeing may be believing, but is the way we see the world accurate in the first place? In this intriguing interview with best-selling author and researcher Dr. Dennis Proffitt, we are talking about his book, Perception. You learn why the things we DO influence what we KNOW. You'll understand how our bodies change the way we perceive the world, and what it means for us on a day-to-day basis. Over decades of study, University of Virginia psychologist Dennis Proffitt has shown that we are each living our own personal version of Gulliver’s Travels, where the size and shape of the things we see are scaled to the size of our bodies, and our ability to interact with them. Written with journalist Drake Baer, Perception marries academic rigor with mainstream accessibility. The research presented and the personalities profiled will show what it means to not only have, but be, your unique human body.For more information about the Catalyst Community, earning your health & wellness coaching certification, the annual Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium and much more, please see https://www.catalystcoachinginstitute.com/ or reach out to us [email protected] If you'd like to share the Be A Catalyst! message in your world with a cool hoodie, t-shirt, water bottle stickers and more (100% of ALL profits go to charity), please visit https://teespring.com/stores/be-a-catalyst If you are a current or future health & wellness coach, please check out our Health & Wellness Coaching Forum Group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/278207545599218.
