What if the way we think about the world is shaped—and limited—by the very structure of our brains? In this episode, we dive into Iain McGilchrist's groundbreaking book, The Master and His Emissary, exploring the profound differences between the brain's two hemispheres and their impact on culture and consciousness.
McGilchrist reveals how the left hemisphere’s focus on logic and abstraction has shaped Western society, often at the expense of the right hemisphere’s holistic and intuitive understanding of reality. From art and philosophy to language and technology, we uncover how this imbalance has led to a fragmented and artificial world—and why rediscovering the right hemisphere’s perspective is crucial for a deeper, more meaningful human experience. Join us for a journey to reimagine our minds and the cultures they create.
