Categories: Science & Math
How the Body Knows Its Mind is a 2015 book by cognitive scientist Sian Beilock, who later became president of Barnard College and Dartmouth. It explores embodied cognition, the idea that the body shapes how we think, feel and decide. Beilock draws on research to show how posture, movement, gestures and surroundings affect learning, memory, mood and performance. She offers practical suggestions for using the body to think more clearly and cope better with stress.
