Storying the Body & Reminding the Brain

Storying the Body & Reminding the Brain

2021 TBC

Terry Callahan

Hardly a day seems to go by without neuroscience gaining publicity for having explained yet one more aspect of human behaviour. Who has not been enchanted by multi-coloured images of brain scans suggesting the precise locations of fear, anger, empathy, and choice or more?

This one-day workshop will critically explore the relationships between narrative and neuroscience. It will loiter around the benefits and hazards of neuroscientific discoveries. Important distinctions between mind, brain, body, affect and feeling will be probed. Tantalising new paradigms of neuroscience, which may be more resonant with the philosophical bases of narrative practices, will be presented. Most importantly, time will be given throughout to practice skills for embodying stories and storying affect.

$145

Terry Callahan continues to be delighted and extended by the possibilities for rich story development with individuals, couples and groups who share their lives with him.
