Salvador Moreno-Lopez: How to use the bodily felt sense

In this talk, Salvador Moreno-Lopez describes a journey of discoveries and surprises: “How I found that using my bodily felt sense helps me orient in my daily life and my work, with much more certainty and precision than I would using only logic and reason disconnected from bodily feelings. This is a great gift of life, available to all people.”
