How the Body Knows Its Mind

How the Body Knows Its Mind: The Surprising Power of the Physical Environment to Influence How You Think and Feel (2015) is a book by cognitive scientist Sian Beilock, author of Choke, who later became president of Barnard College and then Dartmouth. Beilock explores embodied cognition, the idea that the body shapes how we think, feel and decide. Drawing on research, she shows how posture, movement, gestures and surroundings affect learning, memory, mood and performance.
