The Body Is Intimately Associated With Our Thinking Processes

Got instinct is a colloquial phrase that reflects our sense that, in its inaccurate sense, the body is intimately involved in our thinking processes. We we identify ourselves with our conscious minds, but so much of mental activity happens below consciousness. The answer is that it's the body that alerts us to to regularities that we're seeing in m in our environment and patterns that we've encountered before. It's the body with those, you know, little twinges and feelings of tension or m excitement or fear that are a sort of tapping us on the shoulder or tugging us on leeve and saying, pay attention.
