Show Notes

Conscious experience is a result of our awareness, but how do we take back our free will from external drivers?


This episode explores the links between the conscious experience and what Free will really is. Building on that we explore how the body deals with pain and negative emotions and how we can learn to carve free will, awareness and control into our day-to-day lives.


Dr Stephen Porges is the father of Polyvagal Theory and how the body perceives threat and safety. His lessons are crucial for how humans connect, learn and exist and build the fundamental concepts to understand emotional intelligence.
