The Body Is Not in Nature

Pure magic. This conversation completely re-enchanted my life.

Bonnitta Roy is an organizational futurist, meta-modern philosopher and horse whisperer. She teaches insight practices for individuals who are developing meta-cognitive skills. She also served as the President of the National Qigong Association and has lived with horses for the last 30 years.

Her teachings highlight the embodied, affective and perceptual aspects of the core self, and the non-egoic potentials from which subtle sensing, intuition and insight emerge.

Topics include:

* Why the meaning crisis is actually the disembodiment crisis.

* The major blindspot common to western philosophy, Buddhism and new-age spirituality.

* The spatial metaphors that hold us back from seeing reality for what it is.

* Why Nietzsche was right about the body and the “dead-end” of western philosophy.

* Why you don’t need to worry about free will.

* How thought is actually the animation of the body.

* A simple, hopeful solution to the metacrisis.

* B’s experience with Qigong and communicating with horses.

* How horses can “read your mind.”

* The REAL reason why Nietzsche had psychotic break and hugged a horse.
