What is the relationship between mind and body? Exploring the idea of consciousness and self, many have assumed that there is such a distinction between body and mind. The task then becomes plotting the relationship between mind and body, wherein we shall hope to find consciousness. Others assert that consciousness is always embodied, for consciousness is always consciousness of something. And for this to be the case, consciousness must be positional, must have a perspective, and must have a place from which to have this perspective. But, here, we find the same questions about the mind-body relationship.

As we age, we become intimately aware of the relationship between our mind and our body. While we’ve had more time to learn about our body, we also find that our body has more trouble doing the things we’ve asked it. How, then, can aging inform our understanding of consciousness and self?

Join us on January 12th from 11 am to 12 pm to explore these questions with other Villagers! We will be meeting at Dede Prince's home, who has, again, graciously offered to host our conversation. Once you sign up, you'll receive her address in a confirmation email. You can also look her up on our member directory on Helpful Village. If you don't receive an email confirmation or can't find her address on Helpful Village, please reach out to William at (614) 390-4827, and he'll provide you with Dede's address. You can also contact him with any other questions you may have!
