Shownotes Transcript

This week, the Evolving Leader podcast talks to one of the world’s leading neuroscientists, Mark Solms). Most widely known for his discovery of the brain mechanisms of dreaming and his psychoanalytic methods in contemporary neuroscience, Solms’ research has taken him and his teams to a surprising source – not the evolved part of our brain responsible for memory, decision making and creativity, but the ancient parts. His hypothesis is that the origins of consciousness stem from bodily feeling and then emotion seated in the brain stem.  If he’s right, the implications on the prevailing notions of what it is to be a human are profound."The Hidden Spring: A Journey to the Source of Consciousness", Mark Solms)
