New inputs this week: The Right Brain Hemisphere, and Spending time in Nature
In this episode we'll look at three new videos - about Ancient Japanese "Forest Bathing" with the practice of Shinto, some key points about the current right brain deficit in our current culture, and how the Ancient Greeks described much of the nature of the Right Brain with the idea and concept of the "Nous".
