How separate is the cognition in our heads from cognition with our bodies, our tools, our communities and our ecosystems? What is participatory sense making and why is our world becoming less and less disposed to doing it? What does connecting cognitively with the world beyond our own bodies do for our sense making, and so for the future of our species?In this episode we have the intriguing topic of extended cognition to explore, and in particular the field of participatory sense-making. So we get into the extended component of the 5E's model of embodied cognition; how our technologies, including AI, are much more influential on our cognition than mere tools that we set aside after use; we talk about our co-dependence on the natural world, and what happens to cognition and our society when our sense of “kinship” with it is lost; And we get into detail on the crucial process of participatory sense making, and how important it is to arrive to consensus rather than getting bogged down in polarisation, which in turn allows us to decide on urgent solutions as a species.Fortunately these are the exact specialisations of our guest, psychologist, cognitive scientist and philosopher at the University of British Columbia, Rebecca Todd. With a background also in neuroscience, she's authored nearly 100 academic papers, whilst her substack hosts her much loved writings for the general What we discuss:00:00 Intro.06:05 Extended cognition defined.08:45 Distributed cognition - Edward Hutchins.09:00 Attention, learning and memory are all distributed.10:00 Can we identify the cognitive boundary between self and other?14:30 Heidegger's warning about undermining the influence of technology.17:00 We give our tools too much credit.19:00 Large Language Model's effect on extended cognition.23:00 Individualistic, extractive, competitive motivations for technology.24:00 Self AS relationship rather than IN relationship - Dr. Yuri Celidwen.28:10 Non-verbal communication.29:46 Feedback loops between nature and our minds.33:50 Connection to nature and mental health.37:20 Belonging and ‘kinship' with the natural world.39:45 Objects can have personality - Object personality Synesthesia.44:20 Risk of appropriation, when applying indigenous ideas of ‘belonging'.46:50 The ‘Trim Tab' analogy — small interventions can lead to big changes in direction, Greg Watson.53:15 Participatory Sense-making explained.57:30 Shifts happen before and after moments of synchrony.59:30 Conditions required for participatory sense-making.01:02:20 The 4 R's: Reciprocity, Respect, responsibility and relevance.01:03:05 Neurodivergence: bridging the way we see the world differently.01:12:15 The new lack of bandwidth for complexity and nuance - information overload.01:15:30 Creating the time and space needed to do participatory sense-making.01:19:30 Food together is a magical ingredient.01:23:30 Openness and listening can be trained.01:24:20 Is consensus necessary.01:29:10 Tolerance of diversity rather than unified consensus.References:Beck Todd Substack, “Towards an ecology of mind”Andy Clarke and David Chalmers, “Extended Cognition” paperEdward Hutchins - Distributed Cognition paper.Fernando Rosas - Statistical boundaries between agents.Karen McClean - SPIN Lab (human-robot interactions through the sense of touch)Shirley Turcotte - Indigenous Focusing-oriented Therapy (IFOT)“Participatory Sense-making with the More than Human World” With Yuri Celidwen.An interview with Dr. Greg Watson - Ex US agricultural ministerHannah De Jaegher & Ezequial Di Poalo, “Participatory Sensemaking, An enactive approach to social cognition”.

Are we reading the Bible through modern Western individualism instead of the collectivist world in which it was written? We review the first episode of Discover the Word's new series and explore the strengths and weaknesses of both approaches to interpreting Scripture.

The cross-national correlation between gender equality and lower fertility is exceptionally strong (r ≈ 0.81). After the 1960s, a unique mating regime spread across parts of the world—with female emancipation, individual mate choice, and effective birth control—followed by a continuing rise in singlehood and declining fertility. Almost all women still want to reproduce, but many struggle to find a good-enough partner. This article argues from an evolutionary perspective that many men's utility to “free women” has been so diminished that solving the fertility crisis by increasing pair-bonding rates seems unfeasible. A viable means for aiding the survival of low-fertility nations could be to provide women with the economic and social resources necessary for them to conclude that having children alone makes for a better life than remaining childless. Such policies would likely exacerbate male marginalization, but new technologies are on the horizon that could offer men reproductive equality.

“KinKeeper” Where Did All the Big Mamas Go? “Is the African-American Community Fully Converted to Society's Individualistic Mindset?” Tonight's conversation ruptures the fake simplicity of “family talk” and drags us directly into the psychological autopsy of a civilization losing its emotional loadbearing structures in real time. Somewhere between social media, survival capitalism, hyper-individualism, therapy language, algorithmic reality, burnout culture, economic exhaustion, and digital self-construction, the African-American community may have quietly drifted from a collectivistic nervous system into a privatized survival mentality where emotional responsibility increasingly feels heavier than love itself. Big Mama represented more than an elder. She functioned as infrastructure. Emotional regulation. Historical continuity. Nervous-system stabilization. Spiritual accountability. Kinship memory. Conflict mediation. Intergenerational translation. She carried people through grief, addiction, betrayal, financial collapse, violence, depression, church hurt, infidelity, and psychological fragmentation without constantly announcing her exhaustion to the world. Modern culture now produces people who require isolation to recover from ordinary interaction itself. That contradiction deserves examination. How did a people who survived slavery, segregation, lynching, economic exclusion, redlining, and collective trauma through communal interdependence gradually become psychologically reorganized around “leave me alone,” “protect my peace,” “I don't owe anybody anything,” and emotionally gated self-preservation? How did boundaries become more aspirational than belonging? How did convenience become more valuable than continuity? How did the algorithm become more emotionally influential than the elder? This generation possesses unprecedented access to information while simultaneously struggling to sustain community, patience, relational endurance, and collective emotional stewardship. Many people now possess followers instead of villages, platforms instead of porches, visibility instead of intimacy, therapeutic vocabulary instead of nervous-system resilience, and personalized feeds instead of kinship identity. The deeper question waiting beneath tonight's topic vibrates with terrifying weight: Did Big Mama disappear? Or did modern society psychologically condition people out of the capacity, endurance, sacrifice, empathy, and spiritual stamina required to become her? Questions to consider: When the Black family stopped gathering around the dinner table and started gathering around personalized algorithms, did technology quietly replace Big Mama as the architect of values? If previous generations inherited identity through kinship, church, neighborhood, ritual, and oral storytelling, what happens when modern identity gets outsourced to screens, influencers, and digital spectatorship? Has social media transformed community from a lived experience into a performance economy where visibility matters more than responsibility? Did smartphones make communication constant while simultaneously destroying emotional intimacy? If Big Mama once represented a living archive of memory, what happens when Google replaces elders as the first source of wisdom? Has technology democratized knowledge while simultaneously eroding reverence for lived experience? When children can access millions of strangers online but barely know their cousins, what kind of social evolution are we actually witnessing? Did the African-American community survive historical oppression through collective interdependence only to enter modernity and voluntarily adopt hyper-individualism as success? Has the language of “freedom” quietly become the language of disconnection? If social media monetizes attention, outrage, desirability, and self-display, can communal consciousness survive inside an economy built on personal branding?

You thought you were dating. You were actually performing — alone, in the dark, with no witnesses. The modern dating machine sold you a lie so seductive it felt like freedom: that real love happens in private, that self-sabotage is just “my process,” and that needing people to see you makes you weak. That lie is older than the apps. It is colonial. It is the same psychological split that taught generations to distrust communal eyes and call isolation strength. Friendfluence is the antidote that refuses to stay quiet. It is not cute group dates or asking your friends for advice. It is the deliberate return of the container — the group as centerline, as living mirror, as live audit that will not let your old pattern complete itself in silence. When your people are allowed to witness the actual version of how you love, the inherited fracture starts to crack. The nervous system that learned to perform safety while hiding its damage finally gets data it cannot ignore. This is not about giving up power. It is about exposing the version of you that misuses power in private. By the end of this conversation, some part of you will feel it: you have been catching your own patterns late. The question is no longer whether you need witnesses. The question is whether you're finally ready to stop protecting the version of you that needed to stay unseen.

Partly inspired by Pluribus and its philosophical questions, but mostly by the shared experience of living in Malaysia, tonight's episode attempts to understand whether humans are - at our psychological base - more inclined towards an individualistic way of life, or in the compromise required to live collectively. Is there something inherently ‘Western' or ‘Asian' in this way of thinking? Can we change? Eugene Tee joins us to try to unpack it all.

We review Matt Walsh's new documentary uncovering the DEI movement in the United States. 'Am I a Racist?' looks at race relations specifically, and the self-help, grief counselling, Protestant evangelical culture found within the workshops he attends. There is a pessimism at the heart of these DEI sessions, one that has a wider context in capitalist realism, afro-pessimism, and Victorian morality. The function of pessimism here is about proposing a foreclosure of systemic change or reorganising society in a meaningful way to end racism, so that instead people individually 'do the work' through self-flagellation and quasi-psychological deconstruction. That sets up the lucrative grift of DEI workshops or events as the only activity someone can attend to be anti-racist, rather than focusing on political action. Individualistic measures become the ceiling of what one can do to defeat racism. Plus, Derrida's 'reiteration' theory, women's loyalty to men as highly racialised, the red flags of coercive workshops, and a prediction of land acknowledgements happening even in Israel some day. At the end of the episode we discuss some of the damage done by vegan activists to indigenous communities in the north of Canada.

Psalm 10:16, 29:10, 47:2, 74:12, 95:3 // Deuteronomy 33:5 // Isaiah 43:15 Matthew 1:1 // Isaiah 9:2, 6-7 The hope of the gospel is not only ‘INDIVIDUALISTIC' in that Jesus came to save us from our sin, it is ‘COSMIC'- Jesus came to make ALL things new! Ephesians 1:16-23 // Revelation 21:1-6 “Many Christians today think of salvation as leaving earth for heaven, but the story of Scripture is quite the opposite.

The focus of God's reign is his people, but the scope of God's reign is all of creation.” — Jeremy Treat 1 Corinthians 2:9 We live in light of Jesus' Kingship not only by seeking to live in MORAL RIGHTEOUSNESS (the ETHICS of the Kingdom) but by living on MISSION (heralding the MESSAGE of the Kingdom!)

The Connected Yoga Teacher Podcast 376: Collective Care Over Individualistic Self-Care with Muna Shakour   Description: The massacre and genocide of Palestinians in Gaza have been going on for months now, and other genocide emergencies are simultaneously taking place around the world. Yet, many (especially in the health and wellness industry), still refuse to speak up, choosing instead to prioritize their safety and comfort over the need for liberation and freedom for all oppressed people. Muna Shakour shares her perspective as a Palestinian with family in the West Bank about shifting from focusing on self-care to looking at collective care.   Muna Shakour is a personal development coach who accidentally became an activist after the events in Gaza started. Her coaching practice has evolved over the years, from a Parenting Coach for parents of children 8 years and younger to coaching small business owners and coaches on how to grow their businesses and personal brands online to attract their ideal clients. Muna also offers corporate training focused on self-reflection and developing soft skills for leadership. Since October 7, Muna has been actively speaking out against the atrocities happening in Gaza and Palestine, sharing information and drawing attention to the situation there.   Muna talks about her work before October 7, 2023 and how she gets nervous about talking about her “work” now. She highlights the relationship we have with all people, the earth, and all creatures, and why we need to focus on caring for the collective “we” instead of focusing solely on self-care for “me”. Muna shares very honestly about the emotions she is experiencing and how that influences her decisions in who to connect with, hire, and support. She also offers some suggestions about how to navigate working for a company that won't allow you to speak up and how to continue running your online business alongside speaking up for peace and justice.   Key Takeaways: [3:29] Shannon gives a shout-out of thanks to sponsors OfferingTree and Pelvic Health Professionals. [6:02] Shannon introduces her guest for this episode - Muna Shakour. [10:35] What does Muna do and who does she do it for? She shares more about her professional journey and how she "accidentally" became an activist. [21:04] Shannon and Muna discuss what it has been like for them to encounter people in the wellness world who say they don't have the capacity to care about everything, especially when they have been increasingly involved in social justice movements in the past few years. [28:35] A lot of us have been feeling a lot of anger and grief. We need to find productive ways to channel that energy. [31:23] How can we be more careful with who we choose to work with and where we give our money to ensure that our values are aligned? [37:48] Shannon pops in to share a little bit about OfferingTree. [40:06] What are Muna's thoughts on when someone says something online that is harmful or hurtful, but it's because they still have some learning to do? [44:39] Muna shares a little about what it's like being a Palestinian and having to avoid mentioning her identity for various reasons. [47:09] We can use our privilege to start speaking up about Palestine and exercise our empathy to imagine what must be like for Palestinians. [53:19] In the health and wellness space, a lot of people try hard not to post political things. Shannon and Muna discuss how they're changing people's minds about this stance. [58:11] Muna shares her dream of people mobilizing en masse to demand change. [63:33] Palestine has become a measure of what we will stand for and what we will not allow. [66:44] What would Muna say to a yoga teacher who has not spoken up till now and is wondering how to do so now? [73:33] We have to speak out even louder because we have privilege and clout that others don't. [80:40] Shannon shares some of her reflections from this conversation with Muna. [81:59] Shannon talks about some of the upcoming events in Pelvic Health Professionals and upcoming episodes of the podcast.   Links: Muna Shakour Muna Shakour on Instagram Gabor Mate Teal Swan Guest Speakers in Pelvic Health Professionals Shannon Crow on Instagram The Connected Yoga Teacher Facebook Group Pelvic Health Professionals   Gratitude to our Sponsors, OfferingTree, Summer Biz Camp, and Pelvic Health Professionals.   Quotes from this episode: "Because the focus was so much on the self, we lost that feeling of community and the good of the collective versus the individual."   "There's always a relationship between us and nature and the universe and earth and the world and people."   "This is the future. The future is you're not following just for the advice. You're following the person, their personal brand, of course, with all of the marketing, but the values of this person and it needs to shine through."   "I imagine if I'm a mom there, how would I want people on the outside to be?"   "My personal opinion is you can still do work and talk about Palestine and they can even both be done at the same time."   "What will you stand for and what will you not allow?"   "This whole idea of the separateness is what's hurting us all. We have to remember that we are connected and relationships are the most important thing."  

In this episode, we explore the struggles of feeling competitive rather than celebrating our friends' successes. Reflecting on how individualism often creates this mindset, I shared insights on how redefining success, practicing gratitude, and actively supporting others can shift us from competition to connection.

“Reconciliation and reparations were never supposed to be two opposite things.” The Church is called to be a repairer of the breach. Drawing on the prophetic texts of Isaiah and Nehemiah, Brenda Salter McNeil joins Mark to discuss her latest book: Empowered to Repair: Becoming People Who Mend Broken Systems and Heal Our Communities. Together they reflect on the Church's responsibility for social justice; the call to engage politics for the common good; the nature of systemic injustice and systemic change; empowerment and mutual investment in change; and the importance of moving closer to injustice in order to become a “repairer of the breach.” Brenda Salter McNeil is a leader in the international movement for peace and reconciliation. She is an Associate Professor of reconciliation studies in the School of Theology at Seattle Pacific University, where she also directs the Reconciliation Studies program. She also serves on the pastoral staff of Quest Church in Seattle, WA. She is the author of numerous books on Christianity, reconciliation, and racial justice. Follower her @RevDocBrenda. AB Mark introduces Brenda Salter McNeil Learn more about Empowered to Repair: Becoming People Who Mend Broken Systems and Heal Our Communities Isaiah 58 and “As If Worship” Isaiah 58:11-12—“And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water whose waters do not fail. And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt. You shall raise up the foundations of many generations. You shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to dwell in. Repair and reparations Brian Stevenson: “Real reparations would mean to repair what was actually broken.” “We want to see justice. We want to see change. … Reconciliation and reparations were never supposed to be two opposite things.” Why the Old Testament prophetic book of Nehemiah is relevant to the church in this political moment: “I wanted to use a narrative in scripture that showed us how do you actually organize people. That it's not just enough to preach about it on Sundays, there's a way that we've got to bring a diverse coalition of people together and show them that we can rebuild what is broken around us.” “How do we retain our identity and our dignity?” How asking the right questions can generate empathy and motivate action Nehemiah's Prayer of Confession Honest confession, just telling the truth Brenda's son Omari's social post: “We are always left saddened but not shocked. This will happen again. Another black queen or king doing what should be considered a regular activity will be killed just because. Black people will express outrage while everyone else will continue on relatively unchanged. We'll exclaim, hashtag Black Lives Matter, and we will get countless comments about, What about all lives matter? I'm looking at you, white evangelical churches. The shock will wear off for the rest of the world and we'll be left to rebuild again by ourselves. This cycle is so ingrained in the Black American narrative that we have learned to quickly spring into actionable next steps because we've done this before and we will do it again. We've had no choice but to normalize the trauma and carry on. So to those who wonder, I have no hope that I or my future children will ever live in a world that is quote unquote equal or totally safe or fair, even though I will always fight for it. Sadly for me and so many others, I lost that dream as a little boy.” Our own humanity is being diminished in every act of injustice Is systemic change possible? Individualistic vs communal lenses The need to get proximate to injustice in order to become a repairer When does proximity help? What causes proximity to stick and create change? Empowerment and mutual investment The work of justice is ultimately God's work Fannie Lou Hamer's activism James Baldwin: “I can't believe what you say, because I see what you do.” Doing what we say “We might not change everything, but in our little corner of the world, we can make a difference in that spot and people get to see a glimpse of the kingdom. And that's life changing.” About Brenda Salter McNeil Brenda Salter McNeil is a teacher, preacher, and leader in the international movement for peace and reconciliation.

Neuroscientist Kristen Lindquist on how even on a biological level, emotions are entirely subjective. According to this neuroscientist, your emotions look different from those of someone who grew up on the other side of the world. Kristen Lindquist, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, explores the concept of 'affective realism,' where our emotional experiences dictate our true reality. Emotions, Lindquist explains, are cultural artifacts, passed down like art or language, and are distinct reflections of both our biological makeup and our societal norms. Individualistic societies like the United States and collectivist cultures like Japan interpret emotions like anger differently, leading to varied physiological responses. These findings suggest that there are no “universal emotional expressions,” that even facial muscle movements we associate with certain feelings are not globally recognized, but are instead interpreted through a cultural lens. Lindquist's work invites us to consider our own emotional responses, encouraging a more open-minded approach to interpreting the feelings of others. Through this understanding, we can appreciate the unique perspectives each individual brings, to eventually unlock better solutions for understanding the world around us.

“If you believe that humans are animals, there can be no such thing as the history of humanity, only the lives of particular humans. If we speak of the history of the species at all, it is only to signify the unknowable sum of these lives. As with other animals, some lives are happy, others wretched. None has a meaning that lies beyond itself.” Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! This week, we're diving into discussion on Straw Dogs by John Gray. From questioning moral structures to pondering the collective soul, we'll journey through the philosophical landscape of Straw Dogs, examining technology, lifespans, and the very essence of humanism. We cover a wide range of topics including: Connections between Straw Dogs and Taoism Whether becoming more moral as a society is possible Individualistic vs collectivistic ways of thinking Gray's critique on the idea that humans are special over animals Technology, striving, and human progress And much more. Please enjoy, and make sure to follow Nat, Neil, and Adil on Twitter and share your thoughts on the episode.

We kick off the episode by sharing our overall impressions of the book and connect it to one of our previous reads, Novacene. (3:23) How would we summarize this book? Nat, Neil, and Adil share their interpretation of the book in their own words, comparing and contrasting their summaries. (8:19) We discuss the disparity between our aspirations for progress and the reality of human nature, exploring how societal foundations have shifted. (12:35) Examining John Gray's argument, we delve into the book's six sections, analyzing its reflections on human nature, morality, and the essence of progress.  (14:55) Are we evolutionarily any different from other animal species? We share the example of a hive of white ants, and their contributions to the collective vs. the individual. (18:19) Measuring happiness and progress are both tricky. Plus, is it more harmful than beneficial to have faith in humanity and progress? (23:11) We pull out some of our key quotes from the book about technology, evolution, and the collective. Technology is not a human-only thing, and over time, new technologies will continue to emerge. (29:55) Differences between Robert Persig's and John Gray's ideas. We look at whether our views on life can change and how science fits into all of this. (36:12) Gray appears anti-striving, with ideals that we shouldn't try to control life or we'll end up disappointed in the end. (41:30) To strive or not to strive? We talk about the evolution of technology, it's accessibility in today's age, and the hard work that has happened in order for tech to progress.  (46:48) Black holes and string theory and dark matter. Oh my! We chat about some cool scientific theories and how they affect our understanding of the world. (50:59) Lots of sci-fi books are being made into tv shows and hitting the major streaming services. Nat, Neil, and Adil list a few that they're excited about. (59:42) Don't judge a book by the Goodreads reviews! If you're intrigued to pick up a copy of Straw Dogs, you can check that out here.

But you better believe this is a film filled with a ton of heart at its core. And in this episode of The Playlist Podcast, Kaluuya, alongside lead actor Kane Robinson, stop by to talk about “The Kitchen.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theplaylist/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theplaylist/support

In this episode, Jamie has an illuminating conversation with Dr. Rodolfo Savica, who is professor of neurology and epidemiology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota. In his clinical practice, Dr. Savica specializes in movement disorders, particularly Young Onset Parkinson's disease (which is also called Early Onset Parkinson's Disease). Dr. Savica explains how he became interested in this field after encountering a patient with young onset Parkinson's who lacked resources and support. He highlights the main differences between young onset and late onset Parkinson's, emphasizing that the brains of young onset patients do not have the aging-related damage seen in late onset patients. He also discusses the challenges in defining and understanding the various conditions within the umbrella term "Parkinson's disease." Regarding treatment, Dr. Savica explains that historically there was a hesitation to start medications aggressively in young onset patients due to concerns about complications. However, current data do not support this approach, and he advocates for individualized treatment based on each patient's needs and responses. He emphasizes the importance of optimizing medication dosages and timing to minimize off times and improve quality of life. The discussion highlights the need for a shift in the approach to treating young onset Parkinson's, emphasizing individualized care and addressing the specific challenges faced by this patient population. The episode also includes a lengthy discussion on lifestyle, including the importance of exercise for Parkinson's disease. Dr Savica emphasizes that 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, five times a week, is the best treatment to delay the progression of the disease. The conversation concludes with a discussion about the need for further research on specific subtypes of Parkinson's disease, and the significance of collaboration between patients, experts, and policymakers to advance understanding and treatment of the condition. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/parkinsonsfightclub/support
