In this episode Physiotherapist and author Kevin Hunt discusses how the brain learns and how it makes associations directly and indirectly. He explores why these circuits of information known as "neurotags" can be helpful and unhelpful. How they influence our view of the world and impact on the choices we make. Such choices have consequences for the health and wellbeing of our current and future self. He compares the understanding of how we learn basic information like colour to complex connections and narratives around pain and how all this ties in with our capacity and the Health Hexagon.
