Maybe you already know about Nia, the dance technique celebrated worldwide, the one that combines martial arts, healing arts, dance arts, and amazing music in a whole body, whole heart experience.

Today's episode shares the voice of Nia founder, Debbie Rosas, and her unique look at the power of sensing – very different from thinking – as a primary intelligence.

Listen to Debbie and you'll get all kinds of insights about the brain – the  BALANCED brain, that is – and what we might be leaving out with all of our left hemispheric ways of thinking.

Be sure to visit the episode page at  www.thebrainandbeyond.com/episodes/17 for some excellent wellness resources, pics of Debbie from back in the day, and a pretty astonishing look at how principles of Yin and Yang map like "this" to the functions of the brain's hemispheres.

And, as the movies Barbie and Oppenheimer vie for "who's on top?" as this episode drops, maybe something even larger.

Enjoy.

best,
