Listen "Narrative Brain"
Episode Synopsis
Discover the power of the narrative brain, an evolutionary mechanism that structures chaotic experience into compelling emotional episodes. Storytelling facilitates co-experience and planning, providing survival advantages. Emotions anchor narratives, rewarding engagement and making complex situations manageable. The brain utilizes multiversionality, constantly generating alternative story versions and outcomes, which prevents entrapment in rigid, single narratives. This capacity unlocks rich, shared human experience.
