#1: For this
question, you need to try an experiment. The idea behind it comes from the
author’s explanation that “the body situates knowledge,” and that
“perspective can change as the body moves.” (p. 126)


Here’s the
experiment: As you are reading the essays for this week, pay attention to your
body. Notice whether you are sitting uncomfortably in a hard backed chair, for
example, or lying down on your bed. Are you hungry? tired? anxious? does any
part of your body hurt? When you stay in one position for a long time in order
to read, do you feel restless? What happens if you stand up and stretch, or jog
in place, or close your eyes and breathe deeply? 

What can you notice about
the connection between your body and your mind? Do you normally think of your
body and mind as separate? (…by the way…if you already read this week’s
essays, read or do homework for another class, and do the same experiment….)
