This week, a mind-expanding walkabout through the realms of body, mind, and spirit, with Indigenous Australian author, scholar, arts critic, and martial artist Tyson Yunkaporta. Tyson is a Senior Lecturer in Indigenous Knowledge at Deakin University, and author of the extraordinary book Sand Talk: How Indigenous Knowledge Can Save the World. Originally aired on Tyson's own podcast, The Other Others, this episode delves into the confluence of Systema and Indigenous thinking, including:

* Physical practices to enhance thinking and awareness

* Blurring the boundaries between self and other

* Distributed cognition, and how we can use it

* Reconnecting with place, finding right story, and living a relational existence

Mind-blowing stuff, for those interested in such things.  For a better context and understanding of half the stuff we "yarn" about here, be sure to purchase Sand Talk (https://www.harpercollins.com/products/sand-talk-tyson-yunkaporta?variant=32280908103714) in hardcopy or audiobook (https://www.amazon.com/Sand-Talk-Indigenous-Thinking-World/dp/B07WSHGCHQ/ref=tmm_aud_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=) format (narrated by the author).
