#47 – Kevin on "Smart Bodies Stupid Bodies" & Retvrn to Mail Order Newsletters?

This week Kevin tell us about some breakthroughs in understanding he's been having. How movement, action, consciousness, and language use define us as lumbering dumb-dumbs or conscious beings with smart bodies. And why the feelz somatic types have got it wrong, or incomplete.

Would anyone be interested in a mailed correspondence course? Please let us know in the comments.

Let us know what you think.
